Chapter 468

Sean sat quietly in the conference room.

This is a conference room on the third floor. It is also the place where he spends most time with William and Neil. Basically, as long as he is in the empty city, he will stay in this conference room most of the time. Although he nominally has to deal with some documents, in fact, he is basically a decoration here. Unless he needs to change the territory affairs in his name, no documents need to go through his hands.

William and Neil are enough to handle the huge affairs of the whole territory.

In fact, it is also because Sean is not a qualified Lord, and William and Neil are too excellent. Like other territories, even if the Lord doesn't do everything himself, there will never be only one interior official under his command who specializes in dealing with government affairs. Maybe even there will be several aides who can help with government affairs.

But under Sean, there are only two people dealing with government affairs: Neil and Rudd.

However, compared with Neil, Rudd's work is undoubtedly much easier, because the Dayi collar he is responsible for is a formed territory, which does not require him to invest too much energy. Especially after becoming Neil's hand, Rudd's workload to deal with is reduced by more than half, which naturally gives him more free time. However, Rudd didn't waste his time. He spent his spare time on other research topics. It is said that one research topic also aroused Neil's high interest.

You know, Neil has lived for hundreds of years, and he has disguised his identity and worked under many nobles. In any way, he has a powerful advantage that other government officials do not have. It is these advantages that enable him to complete almost what needs an administrative team alone. Therefore, it is not easy to arouse his strong interest under such circumstances.

What Sean is looking at at at the moment is what interests Neil.

Such information, of course, ultimately needs Sean's personal decision. However, Neil's other outstanding advantage is that when Rudd began to study this subject which is conducive to the growth of territorial economic benefits, he already saw many troubles that this subject needs to face. Therefore, this material has made extremely detailed judgment and analysis, and even divided the whole subject research into three stages, And the investment and return required in each stage are roughly evaluated.

If we can really overcome the troubles mentioned in the information, once the plan is successfully implemented, the territory's economic income is likely to be tripled. Moreover, the larger the territory is and the richer the resources are, the greater the profits will be. However, for such a huge plan, the investment in the first stage alone needs at least 2 million large funds, while the investment in the second and third stages is doubled on the basis of the previous stage.

In other words, if you want to triple the income of the whole territory, you need at least tens of millions of funds.

You know, Athena fought the whole southern part of the kingdom of dabion, and the final harvest of that battle was just tens of millions.

This is a huge investment project.

Of course, for such a large project, the investment in each stage will also have a corresponding return. It depends on whether Sean has enough courage to make this decision. Because once this project is started, it means that Sean decides to invest all the proceeds of the future war with the kingdom of dabion, which also means that he cannot make any military expansion or other government investment before completing the first phase of the plan.

"The privatization of special products, ah, thanks to Rudd." Sean smiled and closed the document, but his eyes narrowed slightly. "Now that he has come outside the door, why don't you come in?"

The voice was not loud, but it was loud enough in this night.

However, no one responded to Sean's words. It was still very quiet both inside and outside the room.

Seeing this, Sean sighed slightly and put his right hand into a bag at his waist.

The bag is rectangular, very flat, about two centimeters deep, just enough to reach into one hand. However, seeing the complicated decorative texture on the bag and the obviously specially tanned black leather, it is obvious that Sean asked someone to make the bag specially.

When Sean's hand came out of the bag, there was a slight golden glow in his palm, and some confused grunts had been taken out by Sean.

This bag is Gulu's residence!

With a strong swing of his hand, grunt, who was still sleeping, had been thrown out by Sean.

"Gollum!"

A sharp scream suddenly sounded, which was particularly penetrating in this silent night.

I saw a golden streamer drawing a golden straight line in mid air at an amazing speed, and then I heard a dull "bang". Gulu had directly penetrated the wall of the conference room. I don't know which wall was embedded. But this time, there was no movement in the whole Lord's house. Unlike in the black swan castle, every impact on the wall would trigger a small-scale earthquake.

When Gulu passed through the wall for two or three seconds, another low sound of heavy objects landing finally sounded.

Judging from the sound, it should obviously be the sound of a man falling to the ground.

Almost at the same time, the door of the conference room was knocked open, and the three figures rushed in at a speed that even Sean was slightly surprised. As soon as they entered the room, the three figures scattered around the conference room at the same time. Obviously, this extremely tacit cooperation is not the first time for them to do so.

This conference room is not very big, but even if there are more than a dozen people sitting at the same time, it is not a problem, but the layout of the conference room has always been a more serious and open environment. Naturally, there will not be too many furnishings, so there will not be too many obstacles that can be used. If you want to hide in the conference room, everyone knows that it is by no means an easy task, At least as long as you are not blind, you can find your hiding place by sweeping it casually.

But now, in front of Sean, there was a scene that shocked everyone.

After the three assassins broke through the door and rushed into the conference room, they scattered around at the first time. Because the direction of the three people scattered was different from the explosive force of the sudden acceleration, and the speed was very good, even Sean couldn't lock the three people at the first time, so he swept along the trace of one of them completely subconsciously, At that moment, the other two killers who entered the conference room completely disappeared under Sean's eyes.

When Sean was surprised to sweep in the direction of the other two people who had just rushed in, the third person who could still find the trace suddenly disappeared out of thin air!

Sean's eyebrows jumped.

Shadow assassin!

This is a sixth level occupation, that is, the so-called superior silver in this world. Although not particularly good at damage, and not as good as other assassin system classes, such as breaking defense or powerful damage ability, this class is the most troublesome class in all Assassin system classes. Because their professional talent can be perfectly integrated with the environment. In this way, they can not only shield their own breath, but also perform the special means of changing into living people.

Basically, any place with shadow is the home of their career.

There is no doubt that Sean lost their trail entirely because they shielded their own breath and integrated into the surrounding shadow environment.

Although there is not much room in the conference room to hide people, there are too many places for shadow assassins who can hide their bodies as long as they have shadows. Even with these shadow parts, it is not particularly difficult to get close to Sean.

If

Almost as soon as Sean thought of a trouble, a shadow assassin suddenly attacked from the left.

His attack was unprepared and unexpected. Even Sean, who had gone through hundreds of battles, failed to react at the first time, so that he missed the weakest attack opportunity of shadow Assassin - this is the biggest weakness of their profession: Shadow assassin is no better than other assassin classes, and their self-defense is very weak and their lethality is not high, Therefore, at the moment of violence, it is actually equivalent to a complete undefended state. In this state, if they can Parry their attack, they will enter a "hard straight time", which is somewhat similar to the case of wrestling failure.

Out of his habitual conditioned reflex, Sean immediately returned to defense with his sword at the moment when the shadow assassin suddenly attacked. But what he didn't expect was that the target of the shadow assassin was not him, but the oil lamp placed in front of his desk - which was also a key point considered by Sean before.

The dagger in the shadow Assassin's hand mercilessly broke the cover of the oil lamp. The tip of the sword easily cut off the wick on the oil lamp, which looked like a flame rising from the dagger.

Then, as the shadow assassin withdrew, the short sword was thrown, and the flame was completely extinguished.

The darkness was like a beast that had been dormant for a long time. At the moment when the only light in the room disappeared, it finally showed its ferocious fangs, jumped out suddenly and completely swallowed the whole room.

A slight cold suddenly approached.

But not from the front, but from behind Sean.

The second shadow assassin, suddenly attack!
