Chapter 18: The Collapsed Maple Leaf Town and the Second Combat Experiment

Inside Peter's territory castle, Su Nan invited the guild leaders and wealthy merchants who had fled to have dinner together.

Exquisite creamy soups were passed down the table by the servants, along with fragrant steaks and lamb chops, and crispy roasted potatoes and corn, all placed on porcelain plates and brought up.

Several guild leaders and wealthy merchants had not enjoyed such warmth and stability in a long time.

They quietly looked up at Su Nan, who had been silent all along.

Just over five years ago, Su Nan was just a young boy, but now Su Nan, sitting in the main seat, had an extraordinary temperament. Although he had not spoken, he gave people a sense of unknown stability.

They didn't know that this was a small side effect brought about by Su Nan's high mental strength.

Su Nan glanced over these people. The main ones who had fled were the three guild leaders, namely the Fur Guild, the Carpenter's Guild, and the Textile Industry Guild. They were also the most powerful commercial forces in Maple Leaf Town.

In addition, among the wealthy merchants, besides those middle-class merchants, there was a wealthy merchant named Pigge, who opened hotels and warehouses for storing materials in Maple Leaf Town, so he was the richest merchant besides the mayor.

The guilds were representatives of the workers in Maple Leaf Town, and Pigge was the representative of the merchants in Maple Leaf Town.

Now that they have all fled Maple Leaf Town and ran to his side, it shows how heaven-defying Guss Pasha was, who was invited by the mayor under the pressure of his werewolf messengers, and almost dismantled half of Maple Leaf Town's wealth.

This kind of person will cause the value of any good thing to be lost a lot if they touch it.

At the dinner table, Pigge saw that Su Nan remained silent, and everyone was somewhat embarrassed because of past reasons, so they were embarrassed to speak.

Therefore, he hesitated for a moment and said, "Lord Su Nan, I was taken in by your father when I was displaced in the past, so I stayed in Maple Leaf Town to create wealth for your father."

"I didn't expect that now, I would be taken in by you again."

"I used to be a believer of the God of Law, a commoner of the Eastern Empire, and later converted to the God of Storms. In short, if it weren't for the old Baron, I'm afraid I would have died in the hands of those Avar barbarians in the north."

Suddenly, the three guild leaders seemed to have opened their chatterboxes.

"Lord Su Nan, you don't know, that muscle-brained guy Guss Pasha actually slaughtered street vendors in the street."

Su Nan raised his eyebrows. "Why?"

The president of the Textile Guild was a middle-aged man, and he explained to Su Nan: "You also know that although merchants have to clearly mark prices when doing business, doing business may still be a little careless."

"Guss Pasha bought something from a vendor, and because he didn't pay attention to the discount information, he spent several times the price. After being reminded by the soldiers, he tore the vendor apart on the spot in a rage and ordered his soldiers to slaughter half a street of merchants."

"During your father's rule of the territory, he had injured people many times due to rage, but I didn't expect that after so many years, he still hasn't changed at all."

The leader of the Carpenter's Guild was a neatly dressed woman in men's clothing. Iss said to Su Nan: "In addition, in order to prevent anyone in Maple Leaf Town from opposing him, he controlled speech. As long as anyone slightly opposed him, he would kill them immediately."

"Maple Leaf Town is a commercial center in the surrounding area, but under his control, these are the most depressed days in the past ten years. We wanted to drive him out by the mayor, but who knew that the cowardly bastard of a mayor betrayed us. Fortunately, we ran away in the middle of the night in advance."

"Guss Pasha sent pursuers to chase us. We fled in a hurry. We originally wanted to go to the territory of another formal knight [Mair Baragan] in the territory, but we were worried that Mair Baragan would not accept our surrender, so we ran to you here."

"Thank you for taking us in."

President Iss sincerely said to Su Nan: "Now it seems that Maple Leaf Town really needs a real ruler. That weak mayor may only be suitable for doing business, but not suitable for becoming our protector."

Su Nan raised his eyebrows.

Fled in the middle of the night?

The Storm Knight has three times the physique of an adult in his prime, who exercises uninterruptedly throughout the year. If Guss Pasha really wanted to catch up with them, these people should not be able to escape in the middle of the night.

The only possibility is that Guss Pasha didn't know they had escaped.

But that's not right either.

Guss Pasha has already sent people to chase and kill them.

That is to say, Guss Pasha deliberately let them escape.

Su Nan thought for a while, which was not surprising.

Guss Pasha's personality portrait is already very complete here. This is a person who will absolutely not use other things if he can solve problems with force.

He is too lazy to appease these guild leaders of Maple Leaf Town who have suffered losses because of him.

He should want to replace a batch of guild leaders, and he deliberately let these people run away, presumably as some kind of test.

I just don't know whether it's testing himself or the other formal knights in the territory.

Perhaps the latter is more likely.

Su Nan thought for a while, but he was actually too lazy to think about it carefully.

It's just a mortal knight who wants to usurp the territory.

This guy's real goal should be himself, or rather, the Baron title of the Storm Kingdom on his body.

Su Nan began to think about how to test the actual combat ability of the current werewolf troops.

President Iss looked at Su Nan and said tentatively: "Lord Su Nan, thank you for taking us in. Now that the bandits in the territory have disappeared, should we tell the royal family about the current situation? Don't you still have the main branch of the Peter family in the Holy Empire to the west?"

"You can ask them for help."

"As long as the Peter family's main branch sends enough knights to help you, the problems in our territory will be easily solved."

Su Nan glanced at her and the others, 'hmmed' casually, and without saying anything, left the dining table and went straight to the attic.

He is now thinking about how to use Maple Leaf Town to turn their troops into test materials for his werewolf army.

President Iss was a little at a loss. She looked at the other guild leaders and the wealthy merchant Pigge, and then looked at the old butler Warwick and said: "Mr. Warwick, what does Lord Su Nan mean by this?"

"Shouldn't we at least spend money to recruit some soldiers? If you are worried about money, we have money. It should be easier for the Baron to take the money to recruit soldiers and hire soldiers, and even wandering knights may be hired."

The old butler Warwick smiled and replied: "Perhaps there is another possibility."

"That is, the Peter Castle does not lack military power now."

"Guss Pasha has never been a problem in Lord Su Nan's eyes."

"Moreover, you turned a blind eye when you should have given money the most, but now you want to please Lord Su Nan, but it is already too late."

President Iss was stunned, and the other presidents were also shocked and somewhat unable to understand the current situation.

The most cunning Oriental Empire man, the old merchant Pigge, suddenly had a gleam in his eyes. He sensed some key elements from the old butler's words.

He whispered to his personal servant beside him: "Take out five hundred gold coins from our inventory. Tonight, arrange another beautiful virgin. I want to offer these things to Lord Su Nan."

"Although it's a bit late, there is still a chance to choose!"

… …

Back in the attic, Su Nan, through the wolf pack effect, noticed that the werewolf hounds on the border of the manor smelled a lot of strangers and weapons.

Through the wolf pack effect, Su Nan gave the hound an order. "Go. Bite."

"Let me see your current strength."

"Brain, record relevant actual combat data through the wolf pack effect, and record it as wolf pack file number four."
