Lane family, in the study on the second floor.
With the desk night light on, Fulin dismissed the maids around him, leaving Sandru alone in the room.
He sighed and looked at the night outside with a bit of worry on his face.
Sandro was waiting on the side.
Seeing his expression, he couldn't help but ask: "Father, are you also worried about the savages invading the border?
With the army's background, it shouldn't be difficult to defend the wall of protection.
If the army fails, , the Holy See of Light and the Inquisition will not sit idly by.
Besides, if the protective wall is captured, we can retreat to the edge of the inner wall and wait for reinforcements from the inner wall. " Fulin shook his head slightly, sighed, and said, "Son, what I'm worried about is not the army's war, but our war."
"Our War" Sandro was stunned.
Fulin said: "War is a disaster, but it is also an opportunity.
The six major financial groups are probably aiming at the huge profits brought by this war.
If you look at the mineral industry on the market recently, prices have soared.
It is a pity that the wealth was earned but lost.
Reputation.
Look at the Holy See of Light and the Tribunal.
The Holy See of Light has set up prayer platforms in various squares.
When the war comes, they will pray to God.
Oh, if there is a God, why not destroy this wild beast?
The civilians who pray when the time comes will have to donate material wealth to the Holy See of Light.
As for the evil Dark Holy See, which gathers magicians and alchemists, it is likely that all the forces will push the direction of this war from behind.
We can use the hands of savages to get what we need.
Not only will we not be able to get any benefits from such a war, but we will be remembered by other forces and take the opportunity to destroy them."
Sandro's face changed slightly, "You mean the Mellon Consortium?"
Fulin sighed, "Disasters are inevitable and blessings are inevitable.
I hope the Mellon Consortium will be attracted by the Scott Consortium.
Otherwise, in this chaotic period of war, we will become their food."
Sandro was surprised and said: "Is my father's words too negative and pessimistic?
We still have the Dudian Divine Envoy behind us.
The Mellon Consortium has been trying to deal with us to no avail.
Now, even in the chaotic period, the Holy See of Light The authority of the Temple of Elements cannot be provoked.
They should not dare to provoke our anger at this time."
Fulin smiled bitterly and said: "But the problem is, Dean is now outside the wall.
At this critical moment, it is really a mistake not to sit in the Temple of Elements.
I don't know if he deliberately exposed such a flaw to seduce Mellon.
The consortium's attack really didn't take this into consideration before going outside the wall.
If it's the latter, I'm afraid we'll be in trouble this time."
Sandro was stunned, thought for a moment, and said: "Father, since the situation is so urgent, I will send someone to call him back immediately."
"He is outside the wall.
You can call him wherever you want.
We have not built a stronghold in the passage outside the wall.
It is impossible to contact him.
We can only find him when he takes the initiative to contact the inside of the wall."
Fulin sighed, "But hunting outside the wall often only lasts for two or three days, or even a week or two weeks before coming back.
I'm afraid that by the time he comes back, the foundation has been pulled out and he will become a prisoner again."
Sandro was shocked and realized the seriousness of the matter.

He couldn't help but said: "Father, is it too much to say that?
He is the envoy of the Temple of Elements.
How could he become a prisoner again?
Can the Mellon Consortium still get involved in the elements?"
Can’t make it in the temple” Fulin said bitterly: "Our Lane family has a small family fortune, and there are few opportunities for you to experience alone.
You will understand later.
Maybe after this incident happens, you will understand that many things cannot be achieved by one way."
In many cases, there are many roads to achieve the goal, but those roads are hidden too deep, and most people cannot see them.
Even if some people see them, they rely on their status and are unwilling to go.
You have to know At one point, if you go outside the wall, you are dead."
Sandro was shocked.
Although Fulin didn't say it clearly, the last sentence made him realize his father's worries instantly like an enlightenment.
He felt cold in his heart and couldn't help but said: "Father, can we just sit back and wait for death now?"
"I have already sent someone to notify him.
He will get the news when he contacts the inner wall."
Fulin sighed and said: "The rest can only depend on fate.
Maybe our Lane family is doomed.
It's hard to turn around, but it's a pity that this young man, if someone cultivates him and gives him another five years, he will definitely become a figure in the outer wall area in the future, even Sludy of the Bronn family, Chaistov of the Scott Consortium, It’s hard to compare” Sandro was slightly startled, silent for a moment, and said: "If he can't survive this difficulty, even if he dies, it won't be a pity."
Fulin glanced at him, said nothing, leaned back on the chair, and slowly closed his eyes.
The next day.
Fulin had just finished breakfast with the younger members of the family.
Before he could leave the table, he heard the butler announcing that someone was coming from outside.
He was shocked and at the same time sat firmly in his chair and ordered the butler to bring someone in.
However, before the butler turned around to lead the way, the visitor had already broken through the door, and the voice first reached the ears of everyone in the restaurant: "You're welcome, I'll go back after collecting the debt."
As he spoke, a middle-aged man stepped in. , followed by two young knights, handsome and vigorous, wearing the official knighthood medal issued by the Knights Hall, and it was an intermediate silver medal.
Fulin's expression changed slightly, but he soon darkened his face and said: "It would be too rude of you to break into this castle without permission."
The middle-aged man looked arrogant and sneered when he heard this.
He seemed to be tickled by the joke.
With a look of disdain on his lips, he said: "Sorry, old patriarch Fulin, your family owes us 428,600 gold coins.
Isn’t it rude?”
Fulin was startled.
Sandro, Jike, and the other children on both sides of the dining table all looked up in shock, suspecting that there was something wrong with their ears.
Fulin's face darkened and he said, "Are you talking nonsense about when our Lane family owed you money?"
"Hmph."
The middle-aged man sneered slightly, shook out a parchment scroll from his arms, and said, "This is the contract.
It is clearly written on it.
It will be the same even if you go to the trial court.
You can see it clearly."
As he said, Throwing things at Fulin.
The thing was not thrown correctly and fell at Fulin's feet.
The middle-aged maid next to her quickly bent down to pick it up and handed it to Fulin.
Fulin's face was gloomy.
He opened it and took a look.
After just a few glances, the gloomy look on his face suddenly changed and he turned pale.
When he saw the end, the paleness on his face turned into anger.

He put away the parchment and turned his head.
He glared angrily at Jike under the dining table and said in a cold voice: "You unfilial son, how could I give birth to such a thing like you?
You owe this, you have to pay for it yourself."
After saying that, he threw the parchment at him angrily.
Jike was startled, he didn't care about holding the knife, he hurriedly caught the parchment roll, opened it hurriedly and looked at it, his eyes widened suddenly, he stood up from the chair suddenly, and said in a voice: "It's impossible for me, when will I It’s impossible to sign such a contract” The middle-aged man seemed to be happy to see the scene in front of him, and said with a smile: "Mr.
Jike, don't you remember?
Last time at the Moulin Rouge in Lido, what you said was very loud.
How could you forget it in the blink of an eye?
These words in white and black are all written by you personally, and now you want to default on the debt."
If Jike was struck by lightning, he rushed to him and roared: "You framed me.
The contract I read at the time was not like that at all.
You are despicable.
This is a crime.
You signed a fake contract for me.
I want sue you" The middle-aged man reached out and touched the saliva on his face, raised his hand and pressed it on Jike's chest, pushed him back two steps, straightened his clothes, and said calmly: "Go and sue, how to get to the trial court?
You don’t need me to tell you anymore.”
"You, you" Jike's eyes were red and he stared at him with eyes wide open.
The two intermediate knights next to the middle-aged man looked at him indifferently, ready to stop or even knock him down at any time:
