"In this way, won\'t my foundation be exposed?" Allen reminded, "I killed Rackett with a single saber strike in Mountain City. After that, I killed the commander of the outsider army. I always feel that it\'s too ostentatious. "
Edward shook his head and said, "It doesn\'t matter. You\'re not going to contact the man named Ryan to pave the way north. I\'ve already made an appointment with him. If he really has a big shot behind him, it would be more convincing. In that case, it would be more convincing for the empire to confirm your accomplishments from your own mouth. "Since you want to get involved with a big shot, you have to show some strength that others can see, so that you can wait for a good price."
"It\'s as if I sold myself." Allen said unhappily, but after hearing Edward\'s analysis, his previous entanglement disappeared. "Then I\'ll tell you about the trip to Mountain City so that you can draw up a written report."
"I\'m listening."
Allen thought for a moment and started talking about the day he brought Ante with him. He spoke in detail, interspersed with some of his own thoughts at that time, as well as various adjustments based on Edward\'s original plan, depending on the situation, and so on. When these words fell into the ears of others, they were undoubtedly extremely??? Lu Beizhen? Sand? Lu?

Allen ended the long conversation with the punishment of the mercenary named Darang. Edward was silent for a moment after hearing this. Allen ignored him and stood in front of the map of the Southern Territory. Edward had used a red pen to circle large and small circles on the map. There were no less than a hundred of them. These circles covered several territories, more than a dozen large cities with tens of thousands of people, and dozens of villages and towns with hundreds of thousands of people. If these circles were connected by a line, it would be the net that Edward had mentioned himself. Under this net, they were all in Allen\'s line of sight.
Behind him, Edward said, "According to the information I\'ve gathered, all the lords have set up their own intelligence systems. However, most of the lords did not control their own intelligence systems and instead relied on local information dealers. After all, to build an intelligence network that one could control and cultivate outstanding and loyal spies would require a lot of time and money, especially the latter. That's not something that any Lord below the rank of Earl can support. Even for us, maintaining such an information network is already our limit. If this network continues to expand, it will exceed the scope of what we can bear. "
"In the past six months, the resources I've invested in Dark Blade are far greater than those of King Of Mountains and Inch Fire. But even so, the number of Dark Blades that could be used did not exceed 300. In order to make it easier to manage, I made some adjustments to the classes within the Dark Blade. From top to bottom, the classes were divided into Dark Gold, Gold, Silver Blade, Copper Blade, and Steel Blade. Currently, the lowest level of Steel Blade had the highest number of people, around two hundred. Twenty Copper Blades and five Silver Blades. Only Belmond was qualified to be a Gold Blade. As for the Dark Gold position, it was currently vacant. "" Only Belmond will be promoted in the future, or other skilled assassins will be introduced. "
"That's what I want to talk to you about. Belmond, I hope he can fully participate in the operation of the Dark Blade. I want to hand over this spy system to him. As for the assassins you need north, I've transferred two Silver Blades from the Dark Blade. Naturally, their combat strength can't compare to Belmond's, but it's enough to spy on them. How about it? "
Allen nodded and said, "Your arrangement is very appropriate. I can't always keep Belmond by my side. It's time for him to take charge."
Edward said, "Well, the King Of Mountains has Bloy, Welik is in charge of the Crusaders, Inch Fire has Woody, Dark Blade is in charge of Belmond, and the Regular Legion is in charge of Roy. This is the armed system that we have constructed. As long as we continue to grow stronger in the future, there is no need to add other new armies. At most, after the two war chariot assembly lines you brought are put into use, you can choose suitable candidates from these troops to form an armored division. "
Allen said sincerely, "I was really lucky to be able to bring you to Planet Heaven back then. Otherwise, I really wouldn't know where to find someone like you who can manage the overall situation for me. "
"Cut the crap. Don't think that by lying to me and flattering me, you can let me work for free without paying me." Edward snorted.
Allen laughed. Back then, when he joined the hunting squad, every member of the squad signed a contract with Allen according to the rules of the Federation, which involved service time, salary, and so on. Especially mercenaries like Belmond and Roy. However, with the expansion of Allen's influence on Planet Heaven, not to mention an important second-in-command like Edward, even Roy and the others were paid far more than the salary involved in the contract.
This time, when Allen returned to the floating island, he specially went to the mercenary market and paid Belmond and the others enough liquidated damages to allow the two men to develop freely. Belmond was already a follower of Allen, so he naturally stayed on Planet Heaven unconditionally. Roy had no intention of returning to Earth. In his words, he lived a fulfilling life on Planet Heaven, so he would continue to manage the regular army for Allen.
Allen had given them a rich return. Take Edward, for example. The wealth that this Maritan could now control was not much different from that of an imperial baron. As long as Allen continued to expand, their wealth would also rise.
Edward paused and said, "After listening to you just now, I was actually thinking about something."
"What is it?"
"The Shadow Duchy and the Bailey Empire have been enemies for a long time. You know, the two countries are enemies. The first to clash was not the regular army, but the spy systems of both sides. Infiltration and counter-infiltration, assassination and counter-assassination, that kind of war without gunpowder is sometimes more cruel and cold-blooded. However, due to their different races, it was clear that neither country was able to export spies to the enemy country. They could only rely on bribing people like Rackett to operate as spies. However, even if they used such methods, the harvest would still be extremely limited. After all, those core figures in the empire's political circle are not so easy to bribe. Secondly, they should be under the surveillance of the empire's intelligence network. " Edward smiled and said, "The Shadow Duchy is like this for Bailey. The latter is a hundred times more difficult to infiltrate outsiders." Now that the Shadow Duchy had quietly gathered troops in Mountain City, it was obvious that they were planning to attack the empire. I don't think it will be long before the war between the two sides starts again. Moreover, judging from the actions of the outsiders this time, they have abandoned their previous tactic of pressing into the empire from the north and circled to the south of the empire instead. They hope to use this area where the military is not too strong as an insertion point to attack the empire. "
"If that's the case, then we" Allen frowned.
"That's right. If the Shadow Duchy really has such plans, then we will be the first to be affected. Therefore, it is very important to have information about the Shadow Duchy. When it comes to infiltration, it is very difficult for Dark Blade to do so due to racial issues. But we have an advantage that the empire does not have … "Edward stopped there.
Allen wasn't stupid either. He smiled and said, "You've taken a fancy to Hubble."
"Actually, I'm also very surprised. What method did you use to kidnap a Catu over? Moreover, even if that big fellow was thrown into the Federation, he would still have the strength of a major general. In our small place, just in terms of surface level, he would be able to suppress you. "
"Hubble is indeed a suitable candidate, but I don't think he can be a good spy. It's more like for him to be a fierce general. He won't be able to do most of the intelligence activities. "
"Of course, but I don't need him to do any complicated espionage work. He just needs to infiltrate the Shadow Duchy and report back what he has seen and heard every once in a while. " Edward said indifferently, "The best spies don't need to hear important military news with their own ears. Instead, they can deduce the general outline of the incident from some changes in the marketplace as clues. Besides, I don't want to know much about the outsiders' secrets. I just need to discover them before they act and give us enough time to react. "
"In short, when war is inevitable. Rushing to fight and preparing for war with all your might are two different things. "
"Alright, then I'll talk to Hubble before I go to the Light Lord. If possible, prepare a lot of wine for me first. "Allen emphasized.
Edward readily agreed.
After a long conversation with Edward, Allen returned to his room. He washed up, changed into a set of comfortable clothes, and sat quietly to temper his Origin Energy. That day on Adahua Planet, he was affected by the Heart of the Stars and activated the Void Origin Energy when he advanced, and it was the most violent and tyrannical Void Skyfire. Even the Heavenly Fire entered his body, cleansing his Origin Energy and circuits, as if he had been reborn and walked a path that no one had ever walked before.
Originally, according to the growth path of the Origin Energy system, no one below the Dominator could sense Void Origin Energy. Before the Dominator, they were all focused on developing their own Origin Energy. Once he had a chance to break through the Level 30 barrier and advance to the Dominator, he would be able to sense the Void Origin Energy. Only then would he be able to extract Void Origin Energy and gradually assimilate it, or replace his own Origin Energy.
Even the Emperor's Void Skyfire, which had left a brilliant stroke in Adahua Planet's history, was unable to skip this rule. Only after advancing to the Dominator level did he sense the existence of Void Origin Energy and trigger the Heavenly Fire. With the supreme might of the Heavenly Fire Waterfall and the Ten Thousand Waterfalls Forming a Sea, the Void Skyfire was famous throughout the entire era.
