Templar Sun King

Chapter 41 Ambition (1)

Three days later, Falcon City.

Since Dubin and the others decided to rush back to Falcon City immediately, several of them rode back overnight, while the soldiers followed behind at their fastest speed, waiting to join up with other returning troops.

At this time, there were eight people at the gate of Falcon City, Adam, Arras, Janet, Dubin, Morris, and three commanders.

Most of the people Arras knew went to inquire about the news first, and he came back after a while.

"Sure enough, it is the deputy city lord. Now all the important departments in the city have been controlled by the deputy city lord, but both of them were injured in the battle with the city lord, and the situation is still deadlocked."

Alas brought some bad news: "I'm afraid it will be difficult for the few of you to enter Falcon City now."

There was no accident between Dubin and the three commanders. Now the entire Falcon City is basically under the control of the deputy city lord. As members of the third legion, it is difficult for them to directly enter the city without being discovered. They can only wait until dark Think again.

And Adam, Arras, and Janet didn't have so much trouble, and went in directly through the gate.

Morris returned directly to the Mages Union to inquire about the news, and he had to report the fact that the deputy city lord was in contact with the Church of Dawn.

"Where are we going now, sir?" Arras asked.

"Wait for someone first."

"Huh?" Arras didn't know that there were other people Adam knew in Falcon City.

After a while, a middle-aged knight appeared in front of him, wearing armor and holding a large sword in his hand. He had short brown hair and blue pupils. He looked very mature and handsome.

The knight saluted slightly to Adam. It was Andrew, the first hero paladin secretly summoned by Adam from the space of the sanctuary.

There are still people!
Aras suddenly felt a sense of urgency. He felt a powerful force from this knight, which was completely beyond his comparability.

And seeing how his profession is about to emerge, this is a very powerful knight who has at least reached the Bronze rank.

Although he had been speculating about Adam's origin for a long time, and knew about Adam's extraordinary features, he never thought that there would be a bronze knight who would follow his orders.

Throughout Celtic, a Bronze-rank professional can gain enough respect, no matter which city he is in, he can be regarded as a high-ranking power.

What is the origin of the Weiwen family?

Compared with Arras' sense of urgency, Janet has less complicated thoughts. Her only thought is that there are really handsome and powerful knights in the world.

The moment she saw Andrew, she felt as if she saw the male protagonist in a knight novel walking out of the book, especially the deep eyes of the other party made her girl's heart beat violently, and she had to look at Arras a few more times Calm down.

"This is Andrew, my guardian knight." Adam briefly introduced to both parties, "Alas, Janet."

"Now let's go to Martin's." As a big businessman, he should know more.

For Martin, Adam had always felt that there was a deeper side hidden in him, but now he wasn't worried at all.

Since Andrew was recruited, Adam feels that he has more confidence in thinking about things and doing things.

At the beginning, out of prudence and safety considerations, he only wanted to find a lord to find a fief to build a base to cover up his ever-increasing types and numbers of arms, and had no other ideas.

But the failure of this operation basically made it impossible for him to obtain the position of lord, and he was full of anger.

Coupled with the increase in personal strength bit by bit, especially the arrival of Andrew, a high-ranking bronze knight, gave him enough strength to support him.

Sometimes Adam would think, why rely on meritorious deeds to obtain the position of lord?
What would happen if he played an important role in this civil strife in Falcon City?
In addition, here is his first manor in this world, so Adam will return to Falcon City without hesitation.

Martin's estate.

Martin didn't expect Adam to come back at this time, but he still entertained Adam very warmly.

What surprised him was that the middle-aged man who followed Adam was a knight at a glance, and his strength was very good, at least in the bronze rank.

What's even more rare is that even Martin, a well-informed person, thinks he is a very good person when he sees him. Martin doesn't know why, but he just thinks so.

"All my lord's plans fell through because of the civil strife in Falcon City." Adam directly explained his reason for coming, hoping to get information from Martin.

"I know." Martin said, his mind spinning rapidly. In his two preparations, the deputy city lord has not made a second move so far, and Adam's lordship is really due to some accidents. It's over.

"what's your plan?"

"I want more intelligence and information."

Adam made no secret of his ambition. He also knew that Martin, a businessman, liked to trade and needed enough bargaining chips.

"I want to gain completely my own power in Falcon City!"

Very good!Martin cheered in his heart. What he was most afraid of was that Adam had no interest in the affairs of Falcon City. As long as Adam was still interested, there was a possibility of cooperation between them. Perhaps it would be more appropriate to use investment.

He could see that Adam had enough strength, but he was very unfamiliar with Falcon City, and he happened to be the one who could help.

"We can work together. What's your goal?"

"Maybe still a lordship." A base is a must.

"The lord?" Martin was a little puzzled. He didn't know why Adam was so obsessed with the position of the lord.

To be honest, the fiefdom of the lord of Falcon City is not large, and more importantly, there are not many benefits to be divided among the power centers of Falcon City.So he planned to persuade him, after all, the more Adam got, the greater his return.

"Maybe we can aim a little higher."

"No, Martin, I'm not very interested in power. What I need is a place that is completely under my control, so participating in Falcon City doesn't do me much good."

The position of a lord is the most suitable.

There is one thing that is common in the distribution of power. If you have a territory, you cannot divide it too much in the highest power center, and if you divide it too much in the power center, it means that you cannot obtain personal fiefdoms, so as not to cause a situation of dictatorship. .

This is the same whether it is in the Seven Cities Federation, the Noble Council or even the entire Upler.

"I don't understand..."

Martin suddenly saw the adventurer who might be called Alaska talking in Adam's ear, and Adam's eyes suddenly lit up.

Adam felt that after recruiting Andrew, there was a desire for more in his heart.

Until just now Arras said a word in his ear, which completely ignited something called ambition deep in Adam's heart.

What Arras said is: Sir, everyone has the right to challenge the city lord, as long as the city lord is strong enough, he can challenge back!
Arras just stated a fact, a fact that Adam didn't notice, but it made Adam suddenly see the light.

Adam used to think about how to obtain the lord position of Falcon City within a lot of rules of Falcon City, but now he jumped out of these rules and planned the entire Falcon City.

If others can, why can't I.As long as the strength is sufficient, the entire city is his own.If the entire Falcon City was under his control, a small territory would be insignificant.

If this is the case, you have to plan well.

At this time, Pepin came back from the outside.Seeing Adam and his party, he was taken aback for a moment, then nodded in greeting, and walked quickly to Martin's side and whispered in his ear.

"The Mage Union has already heard the news of the cooperation between the deputy city lord and the Church of Dawn. If there is no accident, the president will not agree to the deputy city lord's proposal."

Martin knew that it was time for him to make a choice between the deputy city lord and Adam.
