The two forces in the west are actively preparing for war.

A few days later, a team of cavalry from the north slowly drove into the city of Cologne.

"Mr. Ado! Mr. Ado!"

Ding Lei was resting in his hotel, and the door was knocked rapidly.

He is the adjutant of the city lord and the president of the Adventurers Guild in Cologne.

"What's wrong?" Ding Lei was still dressed in the same full-body black knight armor, and it seemed that he was wearing it even when he was sleeping.

"Northern! People from the Wells Empire! Look for!"

"Slower……"

"You'd better come with me." The guild president didn't say anything, and hurriedly pulled Ding Lei out.

Leaving Kelly alone in the hotel, following the president, came to the Adventurers Guild office, and opened the door.

The scene in front of him made Ding Lei frown. There was a person sitting on the president's office chair. He was not the city lord, but a guy I had never seen before. The boy arrogantly put his legs on the desk and drank carefully with a teacup in his hand.

Lord Arthur sat carefully opposite him and kept wiping his sweat.

"Brother Adu! You're here!!" The city lord was so excited that he almost cried when he saw Ding Lei.

"Arthur, who is this guy?" Ding Lei said directly at him.

"Huh?" The guy at the desk turned his head and scared the city lord quickly pulled Ding Lei out of the door.

Seeing that Lord Arthur was afraid of being like this, Ding Lei had already guessed that he was an envoy of the Northern Empire or the Southern Federation.

"Brother, don't talk nonsense. He is the favorite of the prince of the Wells Empire. If you want to talk nonsense, we will finish as soon as this guy returns to report!"

"It's just a dog-legged."

"Hey, brother, you don't know that the Imperial Prince is a mentally retarded, and his legs are all mad dogs, so arrogant that they can catch and bite whoever they are. Our Cologne is just a commercial city. In other words, we are just a businessman. We just want to have a stable environment to do business. If we offend them and send troops directly, we have no business to do."

The great prince of the Wells Empire... well... why does it feel like déjà...

Ding Lei shook his head and asked, "What's going on with him this time? Is there a routine blackmail every year?"

"Hey... there was blackmail, but there was a condition attached at the same time."

“What conditions?”

"You want to go over and be their Paladin stormtrooper."

“…”

Seeing that Ding Lei did not speak, the city lord sighed and said, "It turns out that they had one, one named Ajer, and the strength is also comparable to the gold level. But one day that guy suddenly resigned and quit. I don't know why, then the empire lacked a gold-level stormtrooper captain. I heard that you were in the limelight recently, so I came over and asked for someone."

Ajel... This name is so familiar...

Ding Lei was about to say something, but at this moment, a voice appeared in his mind.

"Your Highness, please go to the empire with them. The people I sent there have not been contacted for several days. Please come and take a look."

It's the voice of Yadunis...

Ding Lei subconsciously looked up at the ceiling. If he guessed correctly, a gargoyle should have been squatting on the roof. The guy's voice was transmitted here through the gargoyle.

"Brother Ado?" the city lord asked strangely.

"Arthur, I need to go to the Empire with them."

"you……"

"Stop talking, if you don't go with them, you will be in trouble, aren't you?"

"Oh... I'm sorry to you, brother..."

"Haha, it will pass." Ding Lei hugged the city lord, patted his back, and then pushed open the door.

Ding Lei went straight to the desk, looked at the guy, and said nothing.

"Have you heard from your city lord?" the other party asked directly.

Ding Lei nodded.

"So let's go."

This guy didn't talk nonsense, and called the two knights on both sides. He went out and left, and before leaving, he walked away a set of writing tools on his desk.

Following Kelly, everyone headed towards the Wells Empire.

Neither Ding Lei nor Kelly can communicate remotely, and can only use the magic crystals increased by the Holy Magician Camilla, which is why it is connected with the God of Death in the Demon King City.

"What's going on?" Ding Lei asked.

Yadonis sent a voice transmission: "Recently, the Tingyi Kingdom in the northwest and the Guanghui City in the southwest are in a high-intensity arms race. Their goal is very obvious, and they are coming to the city of Cologne."

After hearing this, Ding Lei was a little surprised and said, "Have their chicken blood effect not subsided yet?"

"Chicken blood?"

"Uh...I mean their excitement."

"Oh, after all, the treasures you gave are beyond the scope of understanding that humans can understand. They all think that the treasures they have obtained were left by ancient gods, so it is common sense to be excited."

"continue."

"Although I knew they would be excited, I didn't expect that they were so excited that they wanted to call that day, but fortunately they were sent to suppress the two of them."

Ding Lei asked strangely: "They come here directly, and we will destroy them directly, isn't it okay?"

"No, Cologne is very important in terms of commercial value and strategic position, so the empire and the Federation here will definitely participate in the war. At that time, we will score troops to deal with four enemies in multiple places. Even if we successfully occupy Cologne, when the situation is not stable, they will send a large number of spies to cause trouble. Once the chaos is done, they will have to suppress it. At that time, they will kill a considerable number of ordinary humans, which will have serious conflicts with the policy of comfort you requested at the beginning."

"so?"

"So, I sent two teams of men in advance to let them get into the top leaders of the Empire and the Federation to influence their decisions. Once Cologne is attacked, they can control it strongly and keep them from moving. After we completely occupy Cologne, we will settle the score with them one by one. Now the Ashamai clan in the south is almost successful, but there is no message sent from the north, so you need to confirm that it is the best if you can help them."

After listening to Yadunis' explanation, Ding Lei had a kind of thing: I'm not ready yet, you wait before you come, don't accept it? You two marshals are my people, so I'm holding it in my opinion! This feeling is.

But then again, Yadunis is worthy of being a senior strategy master. Everything has been arranged in advance, but sometimes human calculations are not as good as God's calculations.

"I understand, I'll contact you when I'm here."

"Okay Your Highness."

It took almost two days to reach the Wells Empire with acceleration magic.

Later, I was told that I would not be able to meet the prince tomorrow morning, so I had to stay in the hotel tonight, come to pick them up tomorrow morning, and leave after that.

Ding Lei took Kelly on the street at dusk, maybe it was almost evening, it seemed a bit deserted here.

"Sir, what makes you so happy?" asked Kelly behind.

Since he came here, Ding Lei felt liberated, and for some reason he couldn't say it.

He thought for a while and replied: "I..."

"Help!!!" A voice interrupted his words.
