Chapter 445

Sean's mood has obviously become a little low since hongyezhen had a secret talk with Andrew. Even he can't explain why there was such an emotional change. However, no matter what, he still has many things to deal with at present, and all these things are closely related to the future of his territory. Therefore, Sean had to keep up his spirits and continue to deal with the unfinished work.

"How's the situation with chilav?" Sitting in the conference room of the Lord's house, Sean pinched his eyebrows and asked.

"If you mean military issues, you should ask William." Neil's desk is full of all kinds of documents, which have completely submerged him behind the desk. Unless Sean stands up, he can't see Neil's situation at the moment, but judging from the sound, Sean bet that Neil must have stayed awake for several more nights.

But for the long-lived elves, staying up late doesn't seem to have much impact on them. At least Sean has never heard of elves working to death.

"Where's William?" At this time, hearing Neil's words, Sean found that he didn't see William in the conference room today, which seemed unusual.

In the past few days, Sean, William, Neil and Rudd have spent their time in the conference room. As the core leadership of the whole territory, except that Sean can be regarded as redundant, the other three are the core of the development of the whole territory. Although all decisions about the whole territory were arranged by Neil, many orders and instructions could not be issued so soon without Rudd's assistance. It can be said that Rudd's importance has begun to really highlight.

As for William, at present, the development of the territory is not really peaceful. Several dabion Kingdom territories adjacent to the chilav and Dayi territories are ready to move. Moreover, these territories have implemented the border blockade policy - which is a very disgusting policy. Through the border blockade, the movement of people in the two territories is prohibited, including peddlers, caravans Refugees and so on are rogue policies that can slow down the economic development of other territories or even directly cut off the economy.

However, the strategic purpose of those who really like to use this policy is not simply to slow down or cut off economic development, but to create unrest. Through the border blockade and some incitement, it is easy to cause the deterioration of public security in the blockaded territory and even bad events such as riots and rebellion. At present, the situation of the Dayi collar is relatively stable. At least with anno and steel wings, it is completely impossible to create riots and rebellion in the Dayi collar. Moreover, according to anno's feedback, the regular patrols in the surrounding towns of the Dayi collar have not been interrupted, so naturally it will not be taken advantage of by bandits and robbers composed of some refugees.

But there is something special about the chilav collar.

Now there are only two villages and one small town in this territory, with a total population of less than 3000, but in fact, there is a bandit force composed of at least hundreds of refugees, as well as a small group of secretly infiltrating troops from other territories, which is a threat to the situation of chilav. Therefore, the current development policies and military mobilization for this territory have become an important issue at the core of Sean's current development.

But when Sean asked William, the rustling sound of writing in the meeting room disappeared in an instant.

"What's the matter with you?" Neil finally stood up and showed his face, which looked thinner than before. "You've been absent-minded these two days, but you didn't hear what just happened ten minutes ago?"

"Ten minutes ago?" Sean was stunned and remembered what someone seemed to say to himself ten minutes ago.

"Lord." Rudd sighed helplessly, and then stood up from the long table in the conference room. "Lord William asked me to remind you that you still have a meeting on future territory military affairs this afternoon. He asked you to go to the small conference room on the second floor after lunch."

Hearing Rudd's words, Sean finally remembered that Rudd had said this to himself when he entered the conference room ten minutes ago, but he was thinking about whether Andrew's words had any special meaning at that time, so he didn't listen carefully. However, the afternoon meeting is indeed very important, but the specific situation is in the charge and arrangement of William. He can delay to attend a little later, but he still has to make a decision in the end.

"Now they are in the conference room?" Sean got up.

"Yes." Rudd nodded.

"Then I'll go over there and have a look. As for the government development led by chilav, do as you say." Sean handed two documents to Neil. "I've signed them, but it's best not to make too much noise in recent months."

"I see." Neil took the two documents and nodded.

The first document is made of red leather, in which Sean instructs Neil to use the right to mobilize all reserve forces, including Alfred, nock, Rena, Clov, Stalin, including the steel wing training camp in the former panda Town, when necessary Aldorf and others must obey Neil's arrangement in an emergency. The second document is more normal than the first one. It says Neil's power of attorney to allocate the resources of the whole territory at will.

In fact, although Neil is now in charge of the administration of the whole territory, the ownership of the territory is always Sean's, so naturally it also needs Sean's signature and appointment. This is also the reason why Sean will sign the first document, because Neil and William are arranged to be civil and military. Although William's military strategy is taught by Neil, some things still need to be regulated after all. At least when William is still there, Neil can't move the army of the territory at will. He can only move the army with William's consent.

But in these days of discussion, Neil has decided to implement sanctions management on the chilav leadership, including a series of military operations. Originally, Neil and William could naturally cooperate with each other, but with the current instability of Dayi collar, there may be some things that need to be judged instantly in the transfer of chilav collar. In this way, Neil and William naturally can't reach unity, so there is the red document signed by Sean now.

After leaving the big meeting room, Sean walked downstairs to the small meeting room.

This small conference room was built later. It is mainly used to deal with some private issues. Unlike the large conference room on the third floor, it is used for real diplomatic and business negotiations, at least in an easier atmosphere.

Down from the third floor, Sean soon walked to the door of the small conference room. At this time, he happened to see a dining car parked at the door, and a young man who looked about 20 years old was busy. He didn't look so conspicuous, but I don't know why. When Sean just looked at the young man, he felt a shudder, which made him feel a little confused.

"Who are you?" Sean asked.

"Hello, my Lord." When the young man saw Sean, he was slightly surprised, but soon bowed respectfully, "I'm Mr. Rodo's worker. The kitchen of the Lord's house is understaffed today. Lord William added meals temporarily, so I'm here to help."

"Rodo's people."

Sean nodded slightly. He was also impressed by this Rodo. After all, the food supply including the black swan castle was also provided by this Rodo, so Sean couldn't remember this person. But even so, Sean's eyebrows still wrinkled slightly, because when facing the young man, the shivering feeling on Sean became more obvious, and he was sure that the cold smell came from the man in front of him.

"What's your name?" Sean asked again.

"Stephen, my Lord." The young man replied humbly.

A golden light flashed in Sean's eyes, which was the effect of the real eye. Anyone who spoke his name to Sean could not escape the detection of the real eye. But this time, when the light of the real eye shines, Sean can't get a detailed data as before, which makes Sean suddenly realize a bad idea.

Just then, another electronic sound suddenly sounded in Sean's mind.

[real eye (blood talent) has evolved to level 3, enabling hostile detection.]

Almost after the prompt sound fell, a layer of orange light suddenly appeared on the young man in Sean's eyes.

Although it was the first time to see this situation, Sean seemed to have had relevant knowledge for a long time. At this moment, he understood the meaning of this layer of orange light.

Distrust (hostility).

The result made Sean feel very confused.

What is "distrust (hostility)"?

If you want to say hostility, Sean is easier to understand, but what does this distrust mean? If you really want to say, that should also be Sean's distrust of the young man in front of him? After all, the other party told him a pseudonym, and only a nonexistent name, the real eye will not be able to judge the other party's relevant detailed data.

But just then, William in the small conference room suddenly came out.

He glanced at Sean with a slight surprise on his face: "Why are you here?"

Sean turned to look at William and smiled: "anyway, there's nothing to do. Just come here to see the situation. You can also participate in the discussion by the way."

"So? Good. " William nodded, "the meeting has just begun. You can just come here now to save me the trouble of reporting to you later Have you eaten yet? I asked Steven to send you one? The things made in the kitchen today are pretty good, and Stephen is very quick. Every time he delivers meals, the time is fast and accurate, and the things won't be cold. I'm thinking about how to ask Rodo for people. "

Hearing William's words, Sean easily noticed the word "lisso".

He knew very well that there was no kitchen in the Lord's house. In fact, it was just a simple office and rest place - in fact, at the beginning, the Lord's house did not plan to set up a rest bedroom, but it was rebuilt after William was tired several times. Even so, the Lord's house did not have a kitchen, So the meal time is to order takeout or simply go to a nearby pub or hotel.

However, later, in order to save trouble and convenience, the Lord's house also had a private kitchen and hired a cook. It's just that there is a distance from the Lord's house, so even if the cook's cooking is really good, but usually the food is not particularly delicious when it is sent to the Lord's house. However, Neil and William don't mind this very much, so everyone gets used to it after coming and going, and occasionally goes to the kitchen if they have time.

But in front of this young man who calls himself Steve, he can accurately deliver the food before it is cold, which is by no means a "sharp" to describe. In particular, there is thick soup in the standard meal of the Lord's house, but Sean just glanced at the situation in the small conference room. He found that there was no sign of spilling whether it was thick soup or other dishes. This is by no means what ordinary people can do.

"Indeed, I think I can really eat hot food every day in the future." Sean also nodded with emotion, and the smile on his face was really many.

This made Steve, who had been watching Sean in the dark, feel a little relieved.

From the moment Sean appeared, Steve had a very subtle illusion. He always felt that Sean seemed to be aiming at himself, which made Steven very vigilant. Because according to his self-knowledge, he felt that he would never reveal any flaws. This has been fully proved by the practice in the past few days. Even the two most shrewd people in the territory did not see through his disguise at all.

Until now, with a soft smile on Sean's face, deers was really at ease with Stephen, the chief intelligence officer of the Millennium covenant empire. He is only halfway through his work now. Although he can't continue his work smoothly because he can't get in touch with Rena and Shina, Cecilia's arrival also makes him feel some hope.

He knows very well that espionage like him can never be completed in a short time, so he is naturally prepared for a long-term battle. Otherwise, he will not become Rodo's subordinate and will come to the Lord's house to deliver meals every day. He just wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to see if he could get close to Cecilia. In fact, he didn't need much time. Even if only half a day was enough for him to complete the intelligence investigation.

He had such a good chance today: he saw Cecilia in the small conference room at the moment.

But in addition, he was shocked by two people in the small conference room.

Both of them are dressed up as priests, but one of them is obviously a priest with a knife - deers has heard of this profession, but it's the first time he can really see it today. From the momentum emanating from each other, it's obvious that he is already a strong man at the top of the Golden Peak, and he can only step into the holy land. Deers knows very well that the promotion of priests is very different from that of mages and war professionals. As long as they are pious enough and have enough divine grace, they can complete the promotion quickly, but their combat experience has always been the worst of the three systems.

Of course, this does not include priests with knives.

As a fighting profession, the fighting experience of priests with swords is not small. Many times, it is even more difficult than some war professionals. From the momentum of the mysterious priest with a knife, deers believes that the other party is definitely not a simple vase, but a priest with a knife who has really seen blood and gone to the battlefield, but deers can't understand it.

Why is there such a strong man in panda's territory?

Before that, he had never heard of the strong person in Panda collar who had reached the upper level of gold, and the strongest one was Rena.

This intelligence error made deers feel a sense of crisis, because he found that both he and the Millennium covenant Empire seemed to completely underestimate the ice and snow and winter churches being promoted by panda and Dayi. If the church has a golden strongman who is about to enter the next Holy Land, it means that the true God behind the church is definitely not a God with weak divine power.

But what deers couldn't understand was why there were members of the church in this conference room at the moment?

If the ice and snow is alone with the knife priest of the winter church, dills can also speculate that the church wants to preach doctrine in Sean's territory, so it wants to negotiate with the LORD some matters that are beneficial to both sides. However, when another serving member of the church was also in the conference room, the situation became a little subtle, especially when the other member of the church was still the high priest of the temple of life.

Dills is not a fool. Although he doesn't know who the other high priest of the life church is, the strong breath of life on the other side can't hide from others.

This information was already remembered by deers at the moment when he delivered the meal. He was ready to investigate after dealing with Cecilia.

Yes, dills was shocked by the unexpected discovery in the conference room, but he didn't forget his job: investigating the blood of Phoenix.

So from beginning to end, dills has been trying to find opportunities to contact Cecilia.

But unexpectedly, Sean suddenly appeared at this time, which really made him feel unhappy. But then Sean's performance made dills' Heart Click. He keenly found that after he said his name, there was a trace of distrust in Sean's eyes - that feeling was very subtle, but dills knew that the other party didn't believe his real name was Steve.

Dills can't believe that this will happen, because he is not the first day as an espionage officer. Although he has rarely done it himself after becoming the general head of the Intelligence Department of the Millennium covenant Empire, it doesn't mean that he will forget this skill that brought him a reversal of his fate. So dills is very confident, or he is qualified to be proud and conceited. No one can see through his disguise.

In fact, it is true that neither the shrewd Neil nor the cautious William found dills' disguise. Even William intended to compile dills into the list of the Lord's house, which means that once William did so, dills would have the right to enter and leave the Lord's house freely - and dills, These days, we are really working in this direction.

If it weren't for Sean, who would appear, and very subtly discover the difference of dills, so as to promote the real eye to the third level, dills might really succeed. Once he takes root in the Lord's house, he only needs to arrange his own hands into the empty city, so he can set up an espionage team for the empty city and even everyone in the Lord's house in a short time.

But now, of course, the situation is different.

After Sean discovered dills' hidden indirect hostility, he naturally paid attention to many details that were easy to be ignored, so Sean can be very sure that the young man who used the fake pseudonym "Steve" was definitely scheming for the Lord's house. But what Sean is not sure now is what the man who calls himself Steve is plotting, the spy sent by the Hastings family, the killer who tried to assassinate William and Neil, or the man of the Millennium covenant empire against Cecilia?

The only thing Sean can be sure of is that the man didn't mean to kill, otherwise Beth would have killed him.

Just because there is no intention to kill doesn't mean there is no hostility. Sean feels it necessary to talk to Beth and find out what the "Steve" is up to. After all, a spy who can hide in the void city and have a relationship with the Lord's house can't be done by anyone. You know, under the joint washing of Neil and William, many dark sides of the void city have been thoroughly cleaned up. Moreover, after rupee took over the espionage work of the intelligence department, the anti espionage operation of the void city has been very smooth. Only in the recent month, more than ten spies from the Kingdom of dabion and the Millennium covenant Empire have been caught.

Of course, these people have been secretly executed. Anyway, neither the kingdom of dabion nor the Millennium covenant empire will recognize espionage.

"What are you looking at?" William found that Sean had been staring at Steve's back and couldn't help asking curiously.

"That man is a spy." For William, Sean had nothing to hide, so he said, "and his strength is definitely not weak. I was afraid of the smell he had just inadvertently sent out."

Hearing Sean's words, William was obviously stunned: "how is this possible?"

Sean was not surprised by William's reaction. After all, William was also responsible for espionage. If he didn't have the third-order real eye, he really couldn't find some details that would be completely ignored. So Sean told William all these clues. With Sean's description, William's look became more and more ugly, and his eyebrows were tightly locked together.

"I'll let Bess deal with it." Sean simply made a decision. "Now, let's deal with another thing first."

"Good." William nodded.
