Edge of the Apocalypse -
Chapter 938: Wyft
Oz followed Alan's instructions and found a quiet room for him, letting Lily and her group of Green Dragon Knight live in. In the Naga tribe, Alan did not see the person that Lily wanted him to transform into a follower. If it wasn't for that person arriving later, he would have been hiding in Green Dragon Knight. Ellen was not interested in knowing the truth. Anyway, he only needed to save her, and Lily would let her go if she liked to pretend to be a ghost.
After setting the time for the meeting, Alan arrived at the place Oz had arranged for him to stay. Not long after he entered the room, there was a knock on the door. Alan said, "Come in." Someone pushed the door open and entered. It was a maid. She was twenty-five or sixteen years old. She looked ordinary and had an ordinary figure, but her walking pace was not ordinary. Alan narrowed his eyes and said, "What level are you in the Dark Blade?"
"Copper Blade Kayli, greetings, Your Excellency."
"Are you the person in charge of Fenrir City?"
"Yes, Your Excellency." The maid nodded.
Ellen pondered for a moment and said, "I'll leave you with one thing. Make a list of the people related to Geller for me. And how long will it take to get a briefing on the matters of Finlier City in the next six months?"
"These things have already been recorded. You only need to sort them out a little. Sir, can you give me an hour?"
"Alright, let's do it."
Kayli, who was clearly a maid but was actually a member of Dark Blade, left the room.
To the east of Fenrir City, there was a street of light opposite the City Lord's Mansion. Originally, this street was called White Rock Avenue, but with the change of name of the territory, the name of this long street made of limestone changed accordingly. Light Street could be said to be an obvious watershed in Fenrir City. The area west of the street was filled with nobles and celebrities in the city. To the east was the residence of the civilian refugees. In the era when the main street was still called Baiyan Avenue, one could see the high-rise jade tiles on the west side of the main street, but on the east side, they were gray and dilapidated, forming an exceptionally sharp contrast.
Over the past six months, civilian dwellings have been greatly improved. Ever since Oz took over Fenrir City, the city's urban renewal had not stopped for a single moment. Of course, it was Edward's attention and favoritism that contributed the most to the implementation of the plan.
On the west side of the street, near the edge of the city, there is a nice manor. The manor was red and green, with fish ponds dug out. In front of the main building was a small square paved with cobblestones. In the center of the plaza, there was a spray pool in which a stone wolf was lying on its side. The back of the main building was four floors tall. The uppermost floor was designed in the style of an open garden. There were three stone pillars supporting the vaulted pavilion. It was hidden among the flowers and plants, and it exclusively possessed a sense of peace and quiet.
Looking at the layout of this manor, one could tell that the owner of this manor was either rich or expensive. Half an hour after Alan entered the city, two carriages came from the east of Radiance Street and drove into the small square of the manor. The carriage stopped and an aged man emerged from each carriage. They had known each other for a long time, so they only nodded when they met before tightening their clothes and walking towards the main building.
A butler and two servants were already standing under the stone steps of the main building. When they saw them, the butler-like man respectfully said, "Lord Bankin, Master Yodi, you've come. Lord Wilfred has been waiting for you for a long time."
The first person was tall, grey-haired, but energetic. He was no longer young, but his back was still straight and his lips were pursed in anger. He was none other than the Governor of Fenrir City, Bankin. The other was younger and gentler. He was wearing a white scarf and leaning on crutches. He was a big businessman, Yodi. Judy was different from Bankin. He had only been in Fenrir City for half a year. He was a total outsider. However, the consortium behind him had ample financial resources and was the largest grain purchaser in Fenrir City.
The two of them were brought into the living room of the main building by the butler. The living room was decorated simply and gracefully, and the spacious layout made everyone who entered the hall subconsciously feel reverence for the owner of the manor. In fact, the owner of this manor, Wyft, was indeed the real owner of Fenrir City.
There was only one person sitting in the living room. It was the owner of the manor, Wyft. The old man, who was over sixty years old, was short. The fireplace in the living room shone with flames and the temperature was moderate. However, the old man still wrapped himself tightly in a bloated fur coat, like an old bear. Hearing the sound of footsteps, the old man opened his eyes and saw that it was Bankin and Yodi. He laughed and said, "Only the two of you? As expected, it was also unexpected."
"Those are all cowards," Bankin stabbed to the left of Wyft and shouted, "but I heard that the kid went into the city, and none of them dared to come out. Normally, those guys would slap their chests and swear, but once something happened, they would all turn into rats that could only hide in the sewer!"
"It's no wonder. After all, the last time Yaluo encountered them, they were terrified. I didn't dare to stand up at this time. This is all within my expectations." Wyft said indifferently, then looked at Yodi. "But Mr. Yodi, as an outsider, actually dared to appear here. His courage is indeed commendable. It is beyond my expectations."
Yodi took off his scarf and smiled, "I'm a businessman, a merchant who only wants to make money. I see the value of investing in Lord Wyvert, so I naturally won't miss it."
"Don't worry, I won't let you suffer." Wyft stood up, smiled, and said in a sinister tone, "Ladies and gentlemen, it's not just the two of you. As long as you're not blind in this city, you can see that little brat Oz doesn't have the ability to run a territory." "It was only to take his father's place. The viscount was willing to let him be the master of the Light Necklace. He only wanted to treat him like a puppet, a puppet."
"Who can make the future of the Radiant Lords bright?" The old man chuckled dryly, "I think it's hard to find a more suitable candidate in this city besides me. But if I want to take over the position of Lord, I have to first pass the Lord's trial. Many people are probably waiting to see my joke, but how could they not know that this is an opportunity?"
"As long as that Lord sees it, the Light Lord will be more prosperous than Oz under my control. Think about it, will that lord continue to hand it over to a kid who hasn't been weaned yet, or will I, Wyft? The answer was obvious to the extreme. Even if that lord didn't agree, it didn't matter. Over the past six months, our arrangements have been very adequate. "If that lord dares to touch us, it will definitely be a bone-wrenching matter for Light Ridge." Wyft smiled and said, "That lord is indeed formidable, but no matter how formidable a person is, I think it is related to interests. He must choose to compromise, right?"
