Edge of the Apocalypse
Chapter 508: Urgent Report

Ark Harbor.

In White Castle, there was a faint fragrance floating in Ouban's study. It was a spice passed down from the empire. It was refined from a variety of plants and emitted a faint fragrance after being ignited. It could calm and tranquilize the mind. Oban was looking at the latest territory briefing. It was a fixed period of time, and the various secretaries in the territory would form a brief report to White Castle, which would then be handed over to Oban. Thus, the count would be able to control every move in the territory.

Of course, the changes in Allen Territory were the biggest, so the briefing Ou Ban received was much longer than in other places. It contained many detailed figures that clearly indicated the dramatic changes that had taken place in Allen's territory over the past week.

Putting down the briefing, Ou Ban rubbed his eyebrows. A large amount of data flashed through his mind. The butler beside him, Mace, said politely, "Master, would you like a cup of coffee to refresh yourself?"

"No need." Ou Ban shook his head and smiled, "This Ellen is willing to sacrifice his life. He's only been back for about a week and has already made so many big moves, hey."

"Baron Allen is always capable." Mace echoed.

"He is indeed capable and willing to invest. Look, he has invested a lot of resources in the Hungry Wolf Territory. Look at the momentum, it is to nurture the development of that territory in the short term."

Mace frowned and said, "That rough man Drouf, the territory under his jurisdiction is just a barren land. Why does Sir Allen pay so much attention to it?"

"So you're still a butler, and he's a knight, and he'll go further in the future." "The Hungry Wolf Territory has great potential. Although it doesn't have a metal mine like Sunset City, it borders Dawn Castle. The soil environment and climate are the same. If used well, it will be a great piece of arable land. If there is arable land, there will be food. If there is food, it will attract the people. With people, how can the territory not develop?" Ouban smiled.

'Sir Allen was interested in this, so he increased his efforts to support the Hungry Wolf Leader's laborious work. When it developed, it would become another granary outside Dawn Castle. Even if it was just a backup granary, its importance was beyond doubt.'

"Sir Allen is really far-sighted," Mace said with a smile.

"Indeed. Furthermore, he has greatly expanded his army. The most interesting thing is that he has also taken slaves."

"Slave?" "Are those dirty, rude guys supposed to be soldiers, too?" Mace asked in surprise.

"This is Sir Allen's peculiarity, he is very peculiar. In his eyes, there were only objective, usable or unusable resources. There were no slaves or nobles, and he really didn't know what kind of environment he grew up in. However, there was no denying that his move had indeed allowed his army to expand rapidly. The expansion of the army will bring many business opportunities, so you see, there have been quite a few merchants lately who have smelled the adorable smell of money and have begun to inquire about Sir Allen's territory. "

While the master and servant were talking, the door was suddenly opened, and an officer ran in hurriedly. He said to Ou Ban with a panicked expression, "Not good, my lord, I just received news from Miss Jorah." Viscount Daniel suddenly sent troops to attack Bauhinia. Now, more than half of the villages and towns in the Bauhinia territory have fallen. It is expected that the unicorn army will be able to approach the main city by this evening at the latest. "

"What?" "Daniel? Are you sure it was Daniel?" Ou Ban stood up in shock.

"Yes, my lord. That's what Miss Ruola said in the emergency report. She has already decided to take the initiative to fight and not give the other party a chance to besiege the city." The officer said hurriedly.

"Take the initiative to fight?" Oban shook his head and said, "Do you know who the commander is, Barnes or Daniel himself? If it's the latter, Jorah has no chance of winning."

"I don't know yet. Miss Ruola didn't mention it."

"Then hurry up and investigate. Also, hurry up and tell Ruola not to be careless. Be on guard against Daniel. He is a cunning fellow. Don't think of fighting him in a decisive battle." Ou Ban said anxiously.

After the officer went down, the count punched the table, "Damn it, is this bastard Daniel deliberately stalling the negotiations for this moment? But why did he stall until now?"

'"Wait …" Ou Ban suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "Glar! This bastard Glar must have taken Daniel's benefits, so he advised me to delay the negotiations. This bastard, if anything happens to Ruola, I will definitely not let you off!"

Ou Ban's face turned angry and he left the study. The butler Mace hurriedly followed and said, "My lord, what should we do now?"

"There's nothing I can do. I can only lead my troops to the Bauhinia. I'm worried about Ruola alone."

"But my lord, if you leave, what if Daniel divides up his troops to attack Ark Harbor?"

Ou Ban suddenly stopped, his expression contradictory. Butler Mace suddenly patted his forehead and shouted, "Baron Allen."

"What?"

'"I can get Baron Allen to support Miss Jorah. He is the closest to the Bauhinia Territory. If we send troops from Dawn Castle, we can meet Miss Jorah before the unicorn army arrives. Besides, Baron Allen has many strong men under him. If he helps, the Bauhinia should not be in any danger."

Ou Ban nodded, "Looks like I was so anxious that I forgot Allen's trump card." You're right, Mace. I can't put out a fire from afar. Alan had to come to the rescue of this close fire. Hurry up and send an urgent message to Dawn Castle. Tell Alan to send reinforcements immediately. I'll be there soon. Tell Alan that I'll give Daniel a satisfactory reward as long as he's beaten back. If he can kill Daniel, then I will give him half of the profits from Daniel's territory in the future! "

"One … half?" Mace stared at Ou Ban in astonishment. How much was the benefit of a viscount? Normally, there would be at least millions of. Taxes every year. The most complete estimate was that Allen would get two to three million a year in taxes alone without doing anything. If other gains are included, the figure is enough to make one jealous.

"That's right, half. Hurry up and go." Ou Ban urged.

Only then did Mace leave in a hurry. Ou Ban let out a sigh of relief when he saw him leave. Although his offer was tempting, it was at best a boost to Alan's morale. Firstly, he didn't know if Daniel was the commander of the army. Secondly, even if Daniel personally took action, Ou Ban didn't think that Alan had the strength to kill a viscount with such strength. One had to know that Daniel possessed a strength of Level 25. He possessed powerful Origin Energy and was rich in experience. No matter how one looked at it, it was not something a baron could match, even if Alan was already a powerful baron.

However, Ouban did not know that Daniel's Origin Energy had dropped by an entire level. And Allen's true strength was not something that could be measured by a superficial level.
