Chapter 39
Colette was still dressed in Tsing Yi, looking easy-going and refined.
"It's better to meet people than to be famous. Looking at it now, it's even better than I imagined." Cardinal Gilmer praised without hesitation with a smile on his face.
Marcus also opened his mouth: "The body strengthening medicine sold by your Mond Chamber of Commerce is very good, and it is very useful for the cultivation of low-level fighters."
"However, it would be better if there are more advanced medicines."
Colette smiled and said: "The current medicine requires unusual medicinal materials. If it is more advanced, it must be more rare."
"Although there is no such thing at the moment, our Mond Chamber of Commerce is stepping up research efforts to see if we can develop the potion that Lord Marcus needs."
A smile appeared on Marcus' solemn face, "Then I'm looking forward to it."
Gilmer started to get to the point, "We are here today to invite you to join our Holy Alliance. With your talent, you can at least start as a priest in white clothes. It will not be a problem to take over my seat in the future."
With Colette's current talent, the ninth-level magician is certain, and he is more than [-]% sure of entering the sanctuary, unless he encounters a major setback and cannot pass.
Just like the third genius magician in history, he is the only magic genius who has such a talent but has not stepped into the sanctuary.
Therefore, for the Holy See of Light, Colette must be wooed no matter what. If it is used by the enemy, it is better to destroy it now.
Colette also understood what they were thinking, and respectfully said: "Master Gilmer, you also know that I control a chamber of commerce, which is not bad at present and has potential."
"I don't want to give up!"
"My goal is to make our Mond Chamber of Commerce the number one chamber of commerce in the mainland."
"However, I was born in the Holy Alliance. I definitely have a good impression of the Alliance. If you have any needs, just come to me. It would be even better if you can maintain a certain degree of cooperation with the Holy Alliance."
Gilmer frowned. Colette had made it very clear that what he wanted was to be on an equal footing with the Holy Alliance, not to be a subordinate of the Holy Alliance.
He sighed, "As expected of the second genius in history, this arrogance is really extraordinary!"
"It's not so difficult to create a force that is equal to the status of the Holy Alliance!"
"However." Gilmer smiled, "Since your goal is the No. [-] chamber of commerce in the mainland, it will be different."
"The three major chambers of commerce, each of which is a colossus, should not be underestimated by any of them, and will only win over and cooperate as a last resort."
"Since you have made it very clear, Colette, then I won't persuade you much. Everyone has his own ambitions, but don't forget what you said. If you collude with the hostile forces of the Holy Alliance and do things that are not good for the alliance, don't blame me. We are ruthless."
Colette said humbly: "Of course I know this, but I'm a businessman, so it's not illegal to sell things."
Gilmer frowned and said, "As long as it's not a strategic material, it doesn't matter."
After another chat, Gilmer and the others chose to leave.
On the way, Marcus said: "Master Gilmer, do you think this Colette will pose a threat to our Holy Alliance?"
Gilmer shook his head, "I can't see it, at least there will be no interest disputes for now."
"But by the time his chamber of commerce gets big, bloated, that's not necessarily the case."
"Then do you want to?" Marcus' eyes flashed a murderous intent.
"No, there will be no threat now. At present, the main focus is to win over. After all, he is a rare genius. It would be a pity to kill him like this."
"What if one day he regrets today's decision again? At that time, he can become an important combat force of our Bright Holy See!"
Finlay City is the holy capital of the Holy Alliance and the core of their power. Whether it is the Four Great Empires or the Dark Alliance, almost no one dares to mess around here.
However, if the local forces have their own disputes, the Holy See will not take care of them.
Yulan calendar 9999 years, January 1st.
Over time, Colette's limelight gradually passed.
He stayed behind closed doors. After the news of his painstaking cultivation spread, except for the first few days, few people came to the door afterwards.
Those forces also know that the other party has their own forces. Although the Mond Chamber of Commerce is not considered first-class in the mainland, it is developing very rapidly and has a good prospect.
With such a power in hand, no one will easily join other powers.
Otherwise, all the previous efforts will be in vain.
On this day, Butler Bourne came to look for Colette, "Master, there is movement in Duke Paderson's residence."
"Someone died not long before our people investigated the Duke's mansion, and Duke Paderson is vigorously investigating the people in the mansion."
"People outside can't get in, and people inside can't get out."
"There is no information available at the moment."
"how so?!"
Colette also didn't expect Paderson to be so vigilant, and if something happened, he would be so heavily guarded.
He knew that what he had thought was simple.
After all, a Duke's Mansion has a strong guard force and can detect some situations when nothing happens. Once alerted, the Duke's Mansion becomes a prison.
In his memory, Hogg had tried his best to escape from the Duke's mansion, but he also suffered irreparable injuries. After returning to Wushan Town, he died not long after.
Still keeping it secret, Hillman didn't tell Linley the news of Hogg's death until Linley returned.
Colette lowered his head and thought for a while. Since Duke Paderson started to investigate, Hogg will be investigated soon, probably within a day or two.
"Grandpa Bourne, tell our people to withdraw. After the mission is over, the people stationed will reward them well. They have worked hard for so long."
"Understood, master."
After Bourne left, Colette's soul sent a voice transmission to Youyou, "Youyou, go to Duke Paderson to watch for me. If anyone escapes and is hunted down, please notify me."
"If he can run away, you don't need to take action, and then bring him back when no one is around."
"Meow~"
Youyou nodded, and disappeared under the shade of a tree without a trace.
That night, Colette suddenly received a faint soul transmission.
Colette put on a black mage's robe and a black mask, and left the Mond Mansion directly from the air, flying to Youyou's place at a very high speed.
Duke Paterson's Mansion.
Hogg knew that Paderson was alert to the missing fighter, and had already begun to investigate.
From the mouth of the dead soldier, he knew that the mastermind behind the abduction of Linna was Padson, but now that it has aroused his vigilance, he has no chance to assassinate him.
Moreover, soon Paderson's people will probe him.
Since there was nothing he could do, he had no choice but to run away first, so that there was still a possibility of escape.
In front of many servants, Hogg jumped directly onto the roof. At this moment, the servants shouted, and all the guards and people who were investigating came here.
After seeing Hogg, they immediately determined that the other party was the person Duke Paderson was looking for.
While they sent people to hunt him down, they went to report Paterson.
"Sure enough, it's still hiding in the mansion. If you catch me alive, it doesn't matter if you cut off your limbs. If you catch them, bring them back to me."
"I want to see who the person behind him is, who dares to sneak into my mansion."
A group of fighters, the lowest level is four and the highest is level six, chasing and killing Hogg in groups.
Hogg ran desperately and shuttled through the streets of Fenlai City. Everyone was paying attention, but no one dared to get close and stayed away for fear of getting involved in trouble.
Colette stayed in the air, holding Youyou in his arms, and looked at the people running below.
"Boss, didn't you say you gave it to me?" Youyou's soul transmitted voice.
"Don't worry, I won't make a move. As for now, let's watch."
