"You really decided to do this?!"

When Shius escorted Zias away, Sistale couldn't wait to express his doubts.

Three years, not long.

But in the current environment, it is extremely difficult not to mention three years or three months. What was she thinking about? She would agree to such harsh conditions, even in exchange for the support of other Truths, it would be too risky. If the Great Elder knew about it... Maybe it would cause some trouble.

"Three years is not as simple as three months. You have never thought that without relying on the help of the night elves, this city is simply an empty city. Even if you have a magical weapon, it is impossible for you to stick to it for three years."

If Moya hadn't translated her conversation with Zias, Sistale wouldn't have known that they had been mumbling for a long time, and they were talking about such a ridiculous condition.

"Ha... I knew you would think so. Although your skills are among the best among the night elves, your brain seems not as developed as your body." When I came to Reth's study, Moya was in a good mood and asked the servant to pour a glass of wine for himself and ordered people to invite Bilfit and Reth.

"Are you implying that I'm not smart enough?" Seeing the obvious hint in Moya's words, Sistale protested dissatisfied; "The person who would agree to this condition is brain development."

"Who do you think I am? If there is really no profit to earn, I will agree?"

"That's not necessarily. Maybe you will do something you regret when you are impulsive."

“I never regret any decisions I made, whether in anger or awake state.”

"Alas~~~~~" Bilfit stood outside the study with a helpless look on his face; "Can you two not argue one day?" As soon as he knew that Moya and Sistale had returned, he rushed over.

He was originally a little worried. When Moya left last night, he asked his guards to keep a close eye on Sistale. Some conflicts seemed to have occurred between them, but judging from the current situation, it should be fine.

I was still at the stairs and heard their arguments.

Then he rushed to Reis with a lot of documents and drawings in his hand. He was no longer surprised by the way the two of them got along. "They always speak like this. Are you not used to it? In my opinion, it is more important to talk about the future development of the city."

Pointing to some of the information I just collected on the long table, the old city lord is currently worried about Meili's situation. "After the recent relaxation of the policy of entering the city, many unidentified merchants came to the city. In addition to mercenaries and adventurers, even prisoners and criminals have increased a lot. If this continues, it is difficult to ensure the safety of the city, which will cause a certain blow to Meili's business. Merchants need a safe environment. If even the city has a large number of criminals, how can they invest with peace of mind?"

Moya walked to the map and observed carefully. The newly made new map clearly planned many new areas. The main urban area has been nearly three times larger than it is now, but Moya is still not satisfied. "City Lord, a city cannot maintain rapid development while maintaining a pure environment as in the world of fairyland. I am already doing this, you don't have to worry. As for this map... I think it's still necessary to do it again. It's not that I'm not satisfied with the city lord's skills, but that I want to develop Meili into a giant city. The current plan is far lower than my requirements."

"Then... how much money will it cost? Imeri's current fiscal revenue cannot be completed." Reis opened his mouth wide. His current plan is already a large city with a population of 300,000. Even Mutaya, the capital of Mingsu, is only a city of 500,000. Building a giant city in such a remote wilderness is simply a fantasy.

Not to mention the shortage of manpower, material resources and funds, as far as the current situation is concerned, the expansion according to his original design will be completed for at least seven to ten years.

Moya wants to build a city larger than it is now. When he offended the Ming and Su Empire, the nearby small countries are ready to move. Will they let Meili build a large-scale expansion?

"Just now, I received a guest with a transcendent status." Knowing Reis' concern, Moya also decided to tell her plans.

"who?"

"Ziath Bastiel."

"Pu" The drawings in Rees and Bilfit's hands fell to the ground.

"Is that Emperor Star?" Or is Bilfit the first to come back to his senses; "Is he here to help you?"

Every time Zias Bastiel appears, he will definitely support an amazing monarch. It is precisely based on this convention that Bilfit dares to make bold speculations.

"Then do he have any requirements?" Reis, who came to his senses, also hurriedly asked. He heard that this mysterious figure would give him some extremely difficult conditions for the emperor he chose to be tomorrow. If it cannot be achieved, he will disappear in history again.

"Yes, he gave me a test: within three years, without the help of external forces, protect the entire city of Merri without using the power of the outside world, and let it withstand the pressure from all sides and build a city ruled by me." Close your eyes, the mellow fragrance of the fine wine that Moya enjoyed, and a bold plan had already been generated in her mind.

"Crazy..." Reiss reacted that it was impossible.

As for Bilfit, he frowned and thought about it carefully before speaking; "Are you just saying what Zias said?"

"Yes, no word." Looking at my brother's bright eyes, Moya knew that he must have discovered it; "Did you see it?"

"It's a little difficult, but it's not impossible to complete." Nodded, Bilfit said that he had discovered the secret hidden in this passage.

"What are you two talking about? Why can't I understand a word?" The old city lord found that the conversation between his adopted son and his sister who was not related to blood was full of mystery.

"In fact, the so-called test is not difficult. The key is to find out how to complete it." Bilfit explained to his adoptive father. "He gave Moya three years, right? This is a relatively abundant condition. He asked Moya to develop Merri City during this period."

"I still don't understand..." Reis shook his head quickly. He didn't understand Bilfit's explanation.

"Let me say it." Knowing that Bilfit's description did not make the old city lord understand, Moya explained it to him personally; "There are four conditions for Zias; the first is three years, the second is to not rely on external forces, the third is to protect the entire city, and the fourth is to become its ruler. No matter from any aspect, they are very harsh, but if you think about it carefully, you will find the mystery."

"Mysterious? I didn't see it." Reis thought about it all over again and again, but still found nothing strange.

"I understand!" Sistaer clapped his hands and found the mystery in Zias's hidden words; "He just said that Moya must not use external forces to defend the city, but he did not say that he would not allow others to help Moya."

"Yes, this is the biggest flaw." Moya nodded, and the wood of Sistale finally got its idea; "Under the premise of 'voluntary', I can recruit a large number of foreign players, such as the night elf, the black dragon Natalie, and the King of Felix, all of whom belong to the category of 'external forces'. In addition, there are many civil forces, which are not to be underestimated."

But what Sistaer is most worried about is the Church of Light; "Then... what should I do with the Church of Light? The forces you just mentioned can indeed temporarily suppress the attacks of the Ming Su Empire. The Church of Light and the Holy Empire cannot be handled so simply. You killed the Great Priest Shayek and tried to kill Crown Prince Ryan, which has given them enough reasons to send troops."

"I have already made a countermeasure about this. In order to prevent the recurrence of fighting between continents like the Battle of Silulis two thousand years ago, the Holy Empire and the Church of Light launched the Estoni Peace Treaty in 2046, which stipulated that no country, the church race must launch continental wars in the name of individuals or collectives. Of course, this also includes the Church of Light and the Holy Empire, and the only reason for them to start a war is me, the Son of Darkness recorded in the Garu Peru. In the name of religion, Minsu or other countries can declare war on Meri. However, once I leave Meri, they will lose the reason for the battle, right?"

"Do you want to... leave? Leave Merry?" After hearing Moya's explanation, the three of them were shocked.

Who will let the overall situation be taken over when leaving in this situation? Without the war priest, the great elder Anster will definitely extend his power to the surface.

"It depends on you. My current strength is not considered a real strong man. If you want to survive in the unpredictable situation in the future, you must increase your strength to fight against the Church of Light, the Holy Empire and other countries. Therefore, it is necessary to practice in the Abyss Demon Realm. Taking advantage of the civil turmoil in the Ming Su Empire, we must seize this rare opportunity and strive for more forces to stand on our side before they completely recover from the royal struggle."

The so-called "powers" include both light and dark. As long as these nobles, merchants, guilds and other countries have industries in Meili, they will not sit idly by and watch Mingsu annex Meili. Moreover, Moya also wants to change Meili into an open city, which is welcomed by everyone. Especially those underground forces hidden in the darkness, they have branches in other countries. As long as they can win over these forces, it is definitely not an unrealistic idea to protect Meili from being occupied.

Bilfit was silent for a moment, then raised his question; "But the Great Elder will definitely place some of his confidants in Merry during your departure. You also know that I, an elder, are just a name and have no real power. Once you lose the backer of the "High Priest", you will not be able to mobilize the night elves at all."

"Even the great elders dare not disobey the elders. I have already planned to return to the Night Capital immediately to explain the situation to the elders. I heard that the teleportation array of the Dark Moon Temple has the possibility of repairing it recently. If it really doesn't work, then I can only lurk on Onitro. They are the few kingdoms of the Eastern Continent that believe in the Dark Moon Goddess. There should be a temple that can teleport the priests to practice in the Abyss Demon Realm."

Bilfit and Reth looked at each other, knowing that this was the only way to do so.

"Okay, no matter what the situation is, please let Awen send me a message."

"He, I don't plan to take it away." After hearing Bilfit say this, Moya immediately remembered his previous plan: "By the way, where did he go? I have come to the city for so long and haven't seen the guards. They usually follow each other very closely, but why haven't you seen it alone today?"

"They heard that you were caught by the Church of Light and rode petrified beasts to rescue you. However, when I came, I saw them back to the city. Now they should be in the living room. They are always following you."

"I'm back, it's just right." Moya opened the study door and saw the guard commander Awen and the other eleven abyss knights standing quietly in the corridor.

"You guys, come in."

With a gentle wave, Awen and the other close knights walked into the study and saw Sistale sitting on the chair. Their eyes shrank for a moment, probably because they knew the difference between their strength and Sistale, and their hands on the scimitar shrank back.

"High Priest, we are all very pleased to see that you are safe and sound. We will say that we will complete it in the shortest time." The twelve elve elves saluted at the same time. They felt embarrassed because they let Sistale go away and Moya's delivery. This mixed-blood elves are always more likely to gain the trust of the high priest than them. After disobeying the orders of the high priest, they came back shamelessly. Awen and several other Abyss knights naturally increased their dissatisfaction with Sistale.

Civilians have no status in the Night Elf tribe, and slaves are lower than civilians. After finally relying on the high priest to reach the status of civilians today, even the cruel night elves know how to be grateful.

If the high priest who was allowed to get rid of slaves and gave them the identity of priests and guards encountered an unexpected accident, they would be defeated again. The night elf nobles never use slaves as their own knights. For the nobles, slaves are just cannon fodder for power struggles.

"I'm very good. I'm very happy to see you so loyal. Therefore, I plan to disband the guards and arrange another very important task for you." Seeing that these guards who were promoted from slaves were so worried about their safety, Moya was really happy and decided to hand over the formation of the Killer Guild to Awen and others.

Slaves and civilians were not valued by nobles, and they were always optimistic about high priests who could give them equal treatment. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Moya planned to develop his own power.

Since Anster will eventually remove me for his own status, it would be better to take action first. Try to win over these slaves and civilians, their population in the Night Capital accounted for 60%. If all the people who were organized into Meri could use civilians and slaves, and Bilfit and the power of the Temple were in charge, the Great Elder could not shake my control over Meri even if he arranged his people to the surface with a needle.

I will slowly and gradually erode the power of the Senate and the Nine Great Family. After I come back from the Abyss Demon Realm, the first thing I have to do is to eradicate the Senate power led by Anster. As long as the Senate collapses, the remaining Nine Great Family will be much easier to deal with.

However, everyone in the guard group did not understand Moya's intentions. Their faces changed drastically and they all fell to the ground.

"High Priest, are you going to abandon us? Is the Senate asking you to replace us with noble soldiers?!"

"High Priest, we know that we have not guarded the traitor Sistale as you told me, but please do not remove us from the sake of everyone following you for the past year!"

Private soldiers abandoned by nobles and temples have no status. Once they are defeated as slaves, they will be assigned to the death camp to act as the vanguard for every battle, cannon fodder and live offerings.

"I didn't say I wanted to replace you with noble soldiers? How could I have such stupid thoughts?" Moya didn't find that his kindness was misunderstood.

"But... you didn't say it just now..." The head of the guard Awen asked a question with the encouragement of his companions.

"I just said that I wanted to disband the guards. That's because I was about to enter the Abyss Demon Realm to practice. It took a long time, maybe one year, two years, or more. Instead of letting you stay idle and not forming a killer guild, I don't want the great elders and nobles to extend their power to the surface. I trust you so that I will hand over such important things to you. How could I use those arrogant noble soldiers to replace my most loyal subordinates?"

After hearing what Moya said, the guards' fearful expressions improved; "Yes, High Priest, please give it to us with peace of mind, and you will not disappoint you."

"Well... the lord, has the guild address been settled?" Because Reis is Bilfit's adoptive father, Moya is not good at calling him by his name, and he has always been called by his position.

"In the south of the city, No. 19 Fangdan Street, it was the original Assassin's union. Because of the bad business, I have the idea of ​​relocating recently. I decided to transfer their address to the upcoming Night Elf Killer Union." After flipping through the records, Reis immediately found the new address of the Night Elf's Guild.

"The Dark Night Killer Guild... How ugly is it. It's better to change its name to the Dark Night Wanderer, the nickname of the Dark Night Elf, which is more elegant." Sistaer's speech once again attracted Moya's eyes.

"It's not a mercenary, so you have to choose a gentleman. It's not good to call a wanderer directly. If you want to hide, you can name it Sword Warrior. The initial impression is very important, and this name is good. Awen, remember, go and change the original assassin's sign later." Moya finished speaking, and the guard who was eager to show it immediately left immediately like a wolf pack that found prey.

"You are becoming more and more sinister, and you dare to lie to the night elves with a smile." Looking at the joy that could not be hidden in the faces of the departing guards, Sistaer shook his head repeatedly. He wanted to climb up and get rid of his humble identity. This is the sorrow of slaves living in the most strata of society. But he didn't know that he was just a flag that could be discarded at any time.

"Sistar, the dark things are the most selfish. I am not so generous that anyone trusts them. In this environment, it is my greatest limit to be able to make them form a killer guild. Not everyone can win my trust like Bilfit and you." Immediately after the guards, Moya also planned to go to the city to see how many new forces there are in Merri.

Moya's words easily blocked the second wave of speech that Sistaer had originally planned to start.

Res looked at Sistale who followed Moya away and shook his head repeatedly; "I know that she can't believe her words, but she still listened to them."

"That's right..." Bilfit also agreed with his adoptive father's words; "He is a fool himself."

"It seems that you don't have to worry anymore, Sistall will betray him."

"Yes... I won't worry anymore. He has made a choice, so Moya is in a particularly good mood today."

"Is there any? Why didn't I find it?"

"It can be seen from the content of their quarrel that Moya has tolerated Sistale's sharpness very much. He has to do it... he will not stop until he argues for a victory or defeat."

"That's right..."

"Also, I'll tell you..."

Moya, who had already walked out of the city lord's mansion, suddenly shivered.

It must be Bilfit again. Every time he says bad things about me, I will shivering.

I looked up at the sky. It was just noon and there was still plenty of time.

"Okay, let's start from the west of the city. There are the most merchants here, let's see which caravans have come in the past few days." Moya, in a happy mood, walked towards the west of the city with a light step, followed by Sistale, who was still cold and indifferent.
Chapter completed!
