Rhodes did n’t take Marlene too seriously. He also vaguely noticed that Marlene was not quite right, but only thought that she felt that there was no fair agreement between her and Leiya. In fact, it is not difficult to give Marlene a contract. Rhodes has decided that if there is no problem with Shenia Family, then he will give Marlene a temporary contract. This contract will give some regulation, but unlike those mercenary, Will not give her an exact date, this can facilitate Marlene to stay. In other words, this contract strictly does not have too much compulsory significance, more like a tool used by Rhodes to appease Marlene.

However, the current Rhodes does not take too much trouble to consider this issue, because he has more important things-he received an invitation.

An invitation from Deep Rock City City Lord, Parfield Area Administrative Officer, Krause.

For this person, Rhodes is not familiar, but it is not too strange.

As Deep Rock City City Lord, and concurrently serving as the administrative officer of Parfield Area, Krause is undoubtedly a very capable person, and in fact, this is also the template for most officials in Moon Dukedom —. Some of them may have deviations in personality and some people It is not very popular among the people, but they all have quite outstanding talents. The reason for this situation is largely because of the unique hobbies of Moon Dukedom Lord and Grand Duke Lydia. She likes to collect talents and will These people are likened to gems. According to her words, the whole country is a gem box, and as Master, she naturally collects the most dazzling and beautiful gems together.

Conversely, the most annoying thing about Lydia is that a pile of stones is mixed with a stone.

In addition, this Seated Archangel is not what Angel should be, so for these stones mixed in her gem box, Lydia has never hesitated to throw it out of the box and changed it in reality. Go there ... Those guys who have no skills and are incapable of doing mediocrity are all removed from their posts and become civilians again. This is still good. If you let the Grand Duke discover that you have defaced her aesthetic behavior during the investigation, then I am sorry, you are ready to have an intimate contact with the guillotine.

This is also a big reason for the controversy after Lydia came to power. Although Royalist has the most power in a country, other forces also exist. They all need some agents to fight for their own interests in the country. . Compared with those who have the ability and ambition, it is naturally those who are timid and fearful, and do mediocre things better. The actions of Lydia in her opinion are to clean the dust and dust of the gem box, but in the eyes of many Great Noble and forces, it is Royalist's move to oust their agents. After all, no matter how great their talents and ambitions are, their ultimate goal is to serve the country, which is consistent with the Royalist goal of ruling the country. But conversely, if they are allowed to join forces with those Noble and chambers of commerce, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not be worried.

And Krause also belongs to a Royalist with a very deep mark. He is cautious, cunning, and cautious, adopts laissez faire, and is low-key in Parfield Area. Although his reputation is not obvious, many people regard this administrative officer. Adults are not familiar, but for those businessmen, mercenary and other forces, they are well aware of the energy of this administrative officer.

It can be said that the Krause's ruling skills are very smart, and he knows that directly managing the people will not have much effect. But conversely, if those forces that are closely related to the people are managed, then the people themselves will naturally have no problems. This is a top-down management model, and it seems that Krause is doing quite well.

But this does not mean that he has no shortcomings. Rhodes is very clear. The biggest problem of Krause is his prudence and prudence. Sometimes this is a good thing, which allows him to be calm when facing some difficult problems. Judgment. But sometimes this is a big trouble, which may make him unable to keep up with the progress of things, resulting in a situation that is out of control. This is the case in the game, because of the sudden difficulties under the leadership of Kingdom of Light, the Parfield Area centered on the entire Deep Rock City began to get out of control. At this time, in the view of Rhodes, it should be squandered to get rid of the source. However, Krause is very cautious. He expects to be able to thoroughly investigate the forces behind the ghosts through the chaos of this period of time, and then wipe it out. However, I did not expect that the development of the final state of affairs exceeded the expectations of Krause. The bigger the situation, the more he could not control it when he planned to force it. When he added the Kingdom of Light that had been prepared at that time, he suddenly made trouble and put originally in the territory. The internal problem has become a diplomatic issue between the two countries, and this time it is no longer the Krause administrative officer. So in the end he was even worse, and was badly hurt by Kingdom of Light. Although Lydia did not give him any punishment, the administrative officer seemed to have lost confidence in himself, and finally chose to leave.

Although he is no stranger to this administrative officer, Rhodes still does not know why he was invited by him. You know that in this world, they are completely two kinds of people, simply has no communication.

originally Rhodes thought that Krause was looking for him to kill him on the street. This is not a big deal, but it still caused some influence among the people. Before the mercenary joint meeting, he also heard that Krause had sent someone to express dissatisfaction with Mercenary Association, and now Emerald Tears was completely finished by himself. According to the character of the administrative officer, not much fanfare, but this kind of warning is very consistent with his style.

However, after walking into the meeting room under the leadership of the shì, Rhodes found that his idea was completely wrong.

At the moment, those on the sofa are old acquaintances.

Not only the Vice Guild Leader Serek of Mercenary Association, but also the patriarch of the Keller Family clan who once had a relationship. When they saw the arrival of Rhodes', both of them were somewhat surprised, but they also greeted him very politely. Although from the status, Rhodes and they can not be compared, but the relationship between them and the two are still good , So I did not encounter any trouble.

"Are you also invited?"

Rhodes has just sat down, and Serek is a little curious asked. The Rhodes is a slight nod, and then frowned.

"You were also invited by Master Krause?"

"Yes."

This time the answer was the Keller Family's patriarch. He put down the teacup in his hand, and complexion was a little yīn sinking.

"We came here only after receiving the invitation from Master Krause. Although it is unclear what it was for, I think it may be because ..."

Keller did not say anything, because at this moment, with the door slowly opening, a man with a short stature wearing magnificent clothes walked in slowly. And seeing his appearance, Rhodes, Serek and Keller all stood up can't help but ...

On the face of it, this man can be said to be somewhat unsightly, with a pointed-billed monkey gill, which does not look like a serious person. But in his manners, he always vaguely carried an unspeakable aura, which is his temperament as an administrative officer of Parfield Area, and also the unique charm of this City Lord adult. Although it didn't seem to be pleasing, but the smile that came out of the corner of his mouth, he could clearly feel his friendly and gentle attitude.

"Three people, please do it."

Krause slowly walked to the center of the meeting room and made a gesture. Then the three of them sat down again, looking at the City Lord adult in front of them.

"I know your time is limited, so I don't waste time anymore."

Speaking of this, Krause coughed lightly, then he raised his head and looked at Keller and Serek.

"Recently, what happened to Parfield Area is a bit abnormal, I think you have also noticed ......... The ore price of the entire Parfield Area has suddenly risen by 30%, which has caused considerable impact on all industries in the territory. Shock, but our ore export volume has not decreased ... "Is that right? Mr. Keller? "

"That ’s right, Master Krause.

Keller nodded.

"I can guarantee that Deep Rock City's ore export volume is very stable without any problems. And the demand for ore in the surrounding areas has not increased recently, so the price increase is very abnormal."

"Not only that ..., the Mercenary Group of Parfield Area has also had a considerable problem recently."

Speaking of this, Krause glanced at Serek.

"I have heard the Mercenary Association report in detail. This is indeed a very hard thing for you, but it is not so simple. Because according to my investigation, there are other problems. According to According to our investigation, many foreign mercenary recently arrived in this area, but they stayed here for a short time and left soon. Although the flow of mercenaries is normal, this large-scale The flow of is very abnormal. I believe that there must be other reasons. "

"You mean there are other reasons?"

I heard Krause say this, Serek can't help staring.

"What do you mean ..."

"This question should not be answered by me."

Krause smiled and shook his head, then he turned his gaze to Rhodes, who had been silent.

"I think, will Mr. Rhodes have a better explanation for this?"! .
