Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 595: Dirty Plan

Glar laughed on the surface, but cursed in his heart. On the surface, Lance sounded good, but in essence, he still hoped that Gills could relax the restrictions on commerce, allowing his own power to gradually penetrate Ark Harbor, and then control Gills to become a puppet lord. However, Grall was neither a member of the Redley family, nor did he have much loyalty to the so-called Earl of Gills, so he did not care about Lance's small actions.

He was more concerned about how much he could gain from this.

He smiled and said, "Then you need to talk to Earl Gills. Earl Oban died. As his friend for many years, Earl Gills trusted me quite a bit."

Lance knew that he had purposely raised his status and didn't seem to break it. "Then I'll leave this to you. If you can talk to Gills, I'm sure Earl Rackard will give you enough money."

Shiloh, who was still a soldier, was disgusted by these blatant political deals. "Lord Lance, I'm going to patrol the camp."

Lance coughed dryly, "General Hillo, I don't want to stay in this damned temporary camp anymore. With the general's ability, it shouldn't be difficult to defeat the unicorn army today, right?" josei

How could Hilo not understand that he was exerting pressure on himself? He could only say, "Lord Lance, please wait for my good news."

Lance nodded, "I hope I don't have to wait too long."

"There's one more thing I need Earl Rackett to look out for," said Grail, after Hilo had left.

"What is it?"

"Marquis Iron Spear." "Earl Oban had already made arrangements to marry Miss Jorah to Hoy's son before his death," said Glar in a low voice. "No accident, this marriage will be completed within three months. I'm afraid that Earl Gills will not be the sole one to decide the matter at Ark Harbor."

Lance couldn't help but frown, "Three months have passed in the blink of an eye. This is not good news. If the Radley Clan is related to the Marquis of Iron Spear, then Ark Harbor won't be so convenient …"

'"Also, Baron Allen promised Lord Orban to keep an eye on Earl Gills for him. So Earl Rackett had better kick this obstacle away first, but he has to think of a way to deal with it. It would be reckless of me to use an assassin against Baron Allen last time."

"What? A killer?" "No," Lance shook his head, "I have never heard the count mention it."

"Lord Lance means that those killers weren't sent by you." This time, even Grar was surprised that Alan had been attacked by a killer in Ark Harbor before Ouban's death. Grar had privately believed that Rackett had done it. After all, at that time, only Rackett had the most motivation and the strength to buy an assassin group with an average level above Level 15.

Lance could be said to be Rackett's confidant, and as Rackett's representative, he was in charge of all affairs related to Ark Harbor. If even he didn't know about this matter, then unless Rackett had the intention to hide it from him, there was only one possibility left. That was the previous assassination, which was done by a second person.

If that was the case, the matter would become even more complicated.

"Alan, let's not talk about him. What kind of storm can a baron cause?" "But this Marquis of Iron Spear is a problem," Lance said, walking back and forth in the tent. "He is a Marquis of strength, and with Sir Rackett's strength, he is no match for him, not even one Earl of Kent."

"Indeed, so if Earl Rackett has any plans, he has to hurry up and complete them before Miss Jorah gets married. Otherwise …"

"Not necessarily." Lance suddenly thought of something. He tried his best to capture the flash of light in his mind and clapped his hands. "Ha, alright. It's really difficult to accomplish the goal set by the count within three months, and it's unrealistic to be enemies with the Marquis of Iron Spear. But we might as well change our angle."

"Change the angle?"

Lance sneered, "What if Miss Jorah can't get married? Without this marriage, the Marquis of Iron Spear would not care about the affairs of Ark Harbor, would he?"

"Impossible," said Glar, shaking his head. "Marquis Hoy is a man who values his credibility very much. Since he has promised Earl Oban, there is no way he will go back on his word."

"That's not a problem, Sir Grayle. Think about it. If Miss Jorah had a problem, Marquis Hoy would not have kept his promise no matter how much he valued credibility, would he?"

'"You mean …" Glar's hand trembled.

"My idea is, if the Marquis of Iron Spear finds out that Miss Jorah already has a lover, or if he finds out that Miss Jorah is not finished, what do you think the Marquis's reaction will be?" Lance said smugly, "I think the Marquis of the Iron Spear will be punished with the lightest punishment if he withdraws from the engagement at that time."

"Lord Lance's method is … really wonderful. However, this matter cannot be done by Earl Rackett's men. Otherwise, if Marquis Hoy finds out, there will be endless troubles in the future."

Lance was stunned and said truthfully, "I didn't think of this level. What a pity."

He had long since heard that Count Oban's sister was so beautiful that he had ruined Jorah's reputation. Even though the Marquis of Iron Spear had cancelled the engagement, he had also taken advantage of it. But now, with Grar's reminder, he was as clear-headed as cold water. Indeed, this matter could not be handled by him personally. Otherwise, letting Huo Yi know would be a bad thing. No matter how much Rackett liked him, he wouldn't offend Huo Yi because of him if he provoked a Marquis of strength.

Lance broke out in cold sweat and frowned, "That would be difficult."

"Actually, it's not difficult." "Earlier, I had heard Earl Gills privately express his admiration for Miss Jorah. What would Lord Lance think if we were able to bring about a good thing that would ruin Jorah's reputation and put Gills on Earl Rackard's side?" Glar said with a wicked smile.

Lance grinned from ear to ear for a long time before he said, "Giles and Jorah, they are not …"

'"Yes. But Miss Jolla is too pretty, and Count Gills is at the age of blood. It is not right for Count Gills to have such an idea, but wouldn't the Marquis of Iron Spear be even more disappointed in the Radley family if this were to happen?"

"But Miss Jorah is not simple. She is very strong. Our Count Gills is a brat who hasn't even reached Level 20. If Miss Jorah resists, Count Gills will probably not be able to stop her."

Lance gritted his teeth and said, "This matter is settled. It's really a waste of money. Don't worry, Earl Rackett will give him a strong arm, but Sir Grail will have to help him to achieve his goal."

"Try to settle this matter within two months." Lance patted Glar on the shoulder.

Grall grinned in pain and laughed dryly, "Definitely."
