Damn it, this boss really has no normal skills.

After listening to the adjutant's matter-of-fact account, not to mention the key members of the alliance who were watching the whole process, even Christine, the person involved, almost believed it.

To say she is stupid is just compared to the beasts of the three families in the inner city. Since she wants to occupy the magpie's nest, she naturally has investigated the power structure within the Mountain People Mercenary Alliance in advance.

Therefore, she did not show any expression or use any words, but directly asked.

"Huh, you? Everyone knows that you are Fenn's confidant. What is your purpose of doing this? Are you hiding and waiting to stab me in the back one day?"

But facing the executioner's murderous glare, which seemed to be filled with blood, the adjutant, who was only in his tenth level, did not look away and just said loudly.

"The Mountain Folk Mercenary Alliance is Lord Fenn's hard work. As a veteran who has experienced countless accidents and separations, he has long been prepared for his sudden death and has made clear his funeral arrangements to me."

At this he let out a sigh and then took a sharp breath.

"Mountain Mercenary Alliance, leader Finn has an order!"

Almost all the mercenaries subconsciously wanted to kneel down on one knee, but suddenly realized that now that the new leader is here, it seems a bit...

But just when they were half-crouching with their heads lowered and looking at all kinds of funny things, the sound of Christine's leg armor hitting the ground made them feel like they were being amnesty.

It scared me to death. It seems that although this crazy bitch kills ruthlessly, she still has some rules...

When the adjutant saw this, he quietly breathed a sigh of relief. He knelt down to help Christine's face, and then opened a letter and became convinced.

Finn was not a master of rhetoric, so the instructions in the letter mainly expressed two meanings.

If the locals of Sunshine City (Business Federation), settlers of the Wilderness (Adventurers Association), or the expatriate nobles of the Kingdom of Glow (Holy Light Church) want to annex the mercenary alliance, all mercenaries must rise up to resist. Fight until the last soldier is exhausted.

——Every inch of the Deep Forest people's territory was conquered. Since they have been labeled as bloodthirsty and bellicose, they cannot allow anyone to step on them.

If another Deep Forest noble wants to usurp the position of leader of the Mountain Folk Mercenary Alliance, as long as his purpose is legitimate and powerful enough to prevent us Deep Forest people from losing face, we can respect him as the new leader and cooperate fully. Don't Make unnecessary sacrifices.

——This place is far away from home. The Deep Forest Bloodline should be members of the same family. As long as they can protect everyone's interests, no matter who takes the top spot, it will be the same.

???

Kristine suddenly felt that the core goal of this series of commands seemed familiar, like...

She raised her eyes and glanced at the ceiling of the hall. Different from ordinary conference rooms, the so-called Covenant Hall was painted with very beautiful and detailed murals like a church. This was the last thing that the Deep Forest people inherited from the elves of the Holy Tree Kingdom. Artistic influence.

The theme of the painting is not a banquet or a garden tour, but a massive war and the decisive battle that determined the status of the Deep Forest Kingdom as the world's most powerful nation - the Encirclement and Suppression of the Great Holy Tree.

In the center of the picture is a king on horseback wearing silver armor and a blue cape. He is directing his magic knights to launch a decisive blow against the last phalanx of the elves.

This is the founding monarch of the Deep Forest Kingdom and the 132nd savior recruited by Yang Yue.

The Lion-Hearted King, who was full of martial virtue and famous, was the ancestral king of the deep forest, and had high hopes from the will of the world, but died in the belly of a succubus in a strange way.

The ancestor of Candlelight, a similarly declining noble surname, was once one of the twelve Knights of the Round Table around him.

As a die-hard man who had the power of following the dragon and listened to the holy teachings day and night, he also passed down many of his teachings to future generations by word of mouth.

Therefore, what Finn expressed was part of what Lionheart said back then.

...So, so loyal...

Looking at Christine who was deep in thought, the adjutant took out a scroll bound in sheepskin and held it up high.

"If you agree, please take this thing away!"

Kristine had no reason to refuse, so she slowly walked forward and picked it up.

This is the "Mountain Mercenary Covenant", and the foreign king will not accept his orders. How can the northern nobles know the situation in Sunshine City?

In order to resolve many internal disputes, this group of soldiers who were thousands of miles away from home signed this additional covenant on the basis of the "Kingdom Covenant".

It's a pity that after so many years, the so-called covenant has long been reduced to waste paper that no one abides by.

Even Finn, who valued it the most, forgot the creed that "all mercenaries have the obligation to save all mercenaries" written in a single line of large characters on a single page, and allowed Andrew to harm countless comrades...

But no matter what, its status as a written document still exists. Since Christine picked it up, even if she chose to assume all the responsibilities as the leader of the alliance, she also gained all the powers as the leader of the alliance.

"It doesn't matter. All I want is this identity and status. I will do what Fein has not done."

Kristine put it away properly, then named several high-level alliance officials and came to another small conference room.

The first words after standing still.

"Inform all the forces in Sunshine City that the new leader of the Mountain Folk Mercenary Alliance has taken office. There will be a banquet for guests and they will come to watch the ceremony."

then.

"The entire army is ready for war, ready to use violence to seize all power in Sunshine City."

Christine's resentful gamble finally came to an end, unexpectedly ending with her own victory.

On the other side, Ji Ming, who was behind the torn curtain, finally noticed that his body seemed to have stabilized.

This feeling of being roughly emptied out of your body and then suddenly filled up again is so exciting... I'm scared to death.

However, the ending was good. He found that his "Zhengqi Health-nurturing Skill" not only did not decrease after some ups and downs, but also improved by two levels.

So……

First of all, he has thoroughly studied the method of determining Zhengqi, which is a very simple "discussing causes and effects."

Therefore, if you can experience ups and downs of energy while lying in bed, it will only be related to the "cause", and the time when this "cause" was planted is very close to now.

Therefore, when Ji Ming came to the nearby Guardian Knight garrison, in addition to reporting on the explosions he heard before, he also asked them to focus on investigating the Minister of Taxation, Christine.

The church's intelligence network was really powerful. Ji Ming only read comic books for less than an hour in the clinic before receiving fresh information from the knights.

It turned out that after Christine left the clinic under their surveillance at night, she did not return to the handler's office where she usually spent the night, but went all the way east and entered the territory of the mercenaries.

Although the church doesn't know much about this extremely xenophobic area, Finn can rely on a few corrupted believers to cast a wide net to obtain small information. How could the church not have its own way?

They had a very reliable informant who reported that there was an explosion at the Mountaineer Arena at about two o'clock in the middle of the night, which happened to be an hour after Christine entered the East End. The time was quite consistent.
