168, aren't you dead? Thank you for the 500
A silver-level warrior? Come and join me?
Sean almost thought he heard it wrong.
In the Jon region, silver-level powerful men are not a big deal, and can only be owned by nobles above the viscount level.
Of course, because Yonn City is close to the Elf Forest, you can also recruit silver-level experts in the market to forcibly obtain the title of viscount.
However, such an "honorary viscount" title is meaningless. It has no territory and no national subsidies, and can hardly support a Silver-level powerhouse.
The hiring cost of an ordinary silver powerhouse is about 40-50 gold coins/month, but this is just the basic cost.
If you want a silver-level powerhouse to work for you and obey your orders every day, the price will cost at least 300 gold coins, which is very expensive.
Therefore, the nobles of Jon City are generally divided into two categories:
One type is the great nobles represented by the River family, with numerous industries and many masters;
The other type is the small nobles represented by the slave merchant Sebastian Shuijing, who only hire bronze-level strong men to maintain a basic title so that they can participate in various social activities.
.......
Returning to Sean, this silver-level man came to join Sean.
Defection means that this silver-level strongman is willing to work for Sean for a long time and obey Sean's orders, and Sean does not have to pay the high monthly fee of 300 gold coins.
This is a piece of cake in the sky!
…
But after thinking about it, Sean felt something was wrong.
Why would a Silver-level powerhouse come to join him? He doesn't have that much influence now, and he doesn't have any "king spirit". Could it be that he is a die-hard loyalist from Palomia?
So Sean asked the valet: "What does that Silver-level strongman look like? Is he a man or a woman? Why did he defect to me?"
The manservant thought for a while and replied: "This strong man is a male, wearing a black robe, with a rather feminine face, probably in his twenties. As for the rest, he didn't say anything else."
After listening to the valet's description, Sean looked at Windsor, and Windsor also looked at Sean.
The two people made eye contact and nodded in unison.
"You ask this strong man to wait in the hall, and we will go there later!" Sean ordered the manservant.
"Okay, sir!" the manservant bowed and replied, then left the study and closed the door.
...
After the valet left, Henry looked at Sean in surprise:
"Sir! Could it be that this Silver-level man is your follower in Palomia just like Anduin and the others?"
If there is the allegiance of a silver-level powerhouse, Sean will no longer be a baron, but a veritable viscount!
Sean shook his head: "I don't know, I'd better go see him and talk about it!"
At the same time, Sean also ordered Windsor and Luo Dian:
"Luodian, go and call Rem over; Windsor, be ready to fight at any time."
"Understood, sir!" Windsor and Luo Dian replied at the same time.
...
Five minutes later, Sean came to the hall with his subordinates.
The silver-level powerhouse was standing motionless in the hall at this time, his face expressionless, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Sean observed the young strong man in front of him. He was quite handsome. There was a hint of coldness in his sullen face. He didn't look like an easy person to get along with.
So Sean tried to communicate with him: "Excuse me, who are you?"
The young strong man saw Sean coming and said softly:
"Your Highness Sean, my name is Sean, I am here to join you and become your subordinate;
In addition, I also have something important to tell you."
"Your name is Sean too?" Sean was a little surprised. The mercenary leader of Silver Hourglass they were discussing just now was also named Sean.
However, considering that it might be the same name, Sean didn't take it seriously: "Sean, what's the important thing for you to come to me?"
"This..." Sean glanced at the guards in the hall awkwardly.
Sean understood what Sean meant and ordered Henry: "Henry, let the guards leave first."
"Okay, sir." Henry quickly ordered the guards to leave.
After the guards left, Sean looked at Sean again: "Can we talk now?"
Sean did not answer, but looked at Windsor, Henry, Barr and Luo Dian: "Your Highness Sean, what I want to say is confidential. The fewer people who know, the better. Are they trustworthy?"
Sean nodded: "They are all trustworthy. If you have anything to say, just say it directly!"
"Oh well!"
Sean didn't do any ink, so he scratched his face with his hand, and his face was immediately taken off like a mask.
Behind the mask, a familiar face suddenly appeared, it was Sean, the leader of the Silver Hourglass Mercenary Group who "died young" that Sean and the others were discussing just now.
Seeing Sean's face, Sean was immediately shocked: "How could it be you? Aren't you already dead?"
The dead are resurrected? Could it be that Sean turned into an undead soul to seek refuge with him?
Thinking of this, Sean suddenly felt horrified.
Butler Henry almost screamed in surprise when he saw Sean's face, and took two steps back in fear. Windsor pulled out his sword and was ready to fight at any time.
Sean put on the mask again: "Your Highness Sean, I am not an undead, and I am not dead. Let's go to a more secluded place to talk."
Sean observed Sean and found that he was indeed not an undead. Windsor also nodded towards Sean.
So Sean said: "This is really not the place to talk. Let's go to the study to talk."
Sean took his subordinates and Sean back to the study.
.....
.....
After entering the study and closing the door, Sean couldn't wait to ask: "Sean, according to the news from the black market, aren't you already dead?"
Not only Sean, butlers Henry and Windsor also showed concern.
"I didn't die." Sean explained: "The news of my death was just false news spread by my father."
"Wait a minute, is this the father you are talking about?"
Sean thought of a possibility.
"That's right!" Sean quickly admitted: "I am the illegitimate son of Bishop Benjamin. The whole thing was planned by my father in order to find a suitable reason to get rid of the traitor in the church - Joshua.
.”
"So that's it! No wonder I always feel that something is wrong." Sean suddenly realized.
Butler Henry couldn't help but ask: "So, you didn't have an affair with the bishop's wife?"
Sean shook his head: "Of course not! After all, I am the son of the bishop. How could I have an affair with my stepmother? Only nobles like to do such a thing."
Sean's face darkened: "I am also a noble, and not all nobles like that.
But then again, if Bishop Benjamin planned this to find a reasonable reason to kill Joshua, then why did he choose you? Can't others? "
"Alas! This matter has to start with the Dark Spirit Church." Sean sighed.
"Dark Spirit Church?" Sean asked, he had never heard of this name before.
