"In addition, check the situation of the barbarians." Dean continued: "I want to know the institutional structure of the barbarians as well as the information of all the members of the barbarian royal family including their preferences in life."
"Barbarians?" Hawkeye was startled. He didn't expect Dean to extend his hand to the barbarians outside the wall. Although he didn't know what Dean was going to do but it was obviously not a trivial matter. Hawkeye resisted the urge to ask: "Yes, elder."
"Go."
Hawkeye left the office.
Dean took out a piece of paper from the side and replaced it with a sharpened pencil. His hand quickly skimmed over the paper. The outline of the pencil sketch suddenly emerged. There were two different faces.
Dean handed the paper to Neuss: "You personally keep an eye on them."
Neuss took a glance and remembered their faces. He asked in confusion: "Sir, who are they?"
"Knights from the magistrate in Thurso Avenue." Dean's indifferent eyes flashed: "Remember, don't let them detect you. If they are killed, follow the killer and find the person behind it."
Neuss was confused but he knew that Dean didn't tell him anything else. There was no use in asking so he honestly agreed.
Dean was silent for a moment. He grabbed the bundle next to him and gave it to him: "Find a cemetery to bury this."
Neuss was startled: "What is this?"
"Ashes."
Neuss's face slightly changed: "Ashes? Did something happen to Sergei? "
"It's my adoptive parents." Dean's eyes were dark and cold: "They had an accident. Someone wants to inquire about me through their mouths. Choose a good location and bury them. Remember, don't engrave anything on the tombstone. Just erect a wordless tombstone."
Neuss was shocked: "They had an accident? How … "He couldn't help but recall the faces of Jura and her husband. Dean had entrusted him to personally bring them to the commercial district. He didn't expect that the modest couple would be killed. No wonder Dean left in a hurry. No wonder he came back like a different person. His body was exuding killing intent like a volcano that would erupt at any time.
"Did these two do it?" Neuss looked at the portrait in his hand and couldn't help but feel angry.
Dean's eyes were dark: "They are just two minions. They don't have the guts to do such a thing. The person who ruled the verdict should know something about the situation, but not too much."
"Elder, I will assassinate them!" Neuss said in an angry tone.
Dean shook his head: "Don't beat the grass to scare the snake. They are just scapegoats. I want to catch the person who did it!"
Neuss suddenly thought of a target: "Is it the Mel family?"
"It's unlikely." Dean narrowed his eyes: "This person should have no enmity with me. The biggest reason why he wanted to use them to get information about me is because of my ability as a master. He wanted to get hold of my weakness so that he could threaten me in the future. But it's obvious that they didn't let go, so …"
As he said that, the hellish scene in the living room appeared in his mind again, and an extremely strong killing intent flashed across his eyes. This killing intent filled his eyes, causing his expression to be somewhat sinister. But in the next moment, the killing intent quickly disappeared, and his tightly clenched fists slowly relaxed.
Neuss instinctively wanted to retreat as he saw the killing intent on Dean's face. Even though he knew that Dean wouldn't hurt him he couldn't help but feel a sense of panic. Fortunately, Dean restrained his killing intent quickly. Neuss stopped his footsteps. He felt that he couldn't breathe: "Elder, how do you know that they didn't let you go? In case the enemy knows about you …"
Dean interrupted Neuss: "I wouldn't be sitting here if they let me go." Jura had told him that the Holy Church would isolate him once the 'Ice Blood Disease' was discovered. If someone knew about his weakness then they could easily control him. Based on this point alone, he knew that Jura didn't disclose this matter.
Because of this, the pain in his heart was heavier.
Neuss was startled and became silent.
"Go."
Dean closed his eyes wearily.
Neuss glanced at him, picked up the ashes, bowed, and left quietly.
Dudian slowly opened his eyes after Neuss left. The previous tiredness was gone. He took the paper and began to draw the blueprint of the new invention.
…
…
In the conference room.
"What? He doesn't care? "
"We will decide the future by voting?"
"Others have come to our door but he is scared! It's the first time I've seen such an elder! "
"Don't quarrel. Isn't it the same if we vote?"
"Yes, I believe that the elder has his reasons."
Fourteen councilors argued fiercely. Several of them supported Dean. One of them was Angeliya who had been punished by Dean.
Hawkeye smiled slightly. He had already expected such a situation. He raised his hand and said: "Everyone, this time the 8th region wants to swallow our 13th branch. Although the 13th branch doesn't have many resources and the terrain is remote, but it is the border of our 9th region. Once they tear it open, there will be more trouble in the future. Moreover, if we endure this time, the other regions will dare to treat us casually."
"Nonsense, of course we can't!" Tumaco had a fiery temper and rolled his eyes.
"Yes, the 8th region is deliberately provoking us. Hmph, they have been eyeing that place for a long time."
"Everyone, are we going to sacrifice or protect? Let's make our stance clear."
"Of course we will protect!"
Most of the council expressed their support to protect the 13th branch. Only four or five people didn't express their views and one person held the idea of abandoning the 13th branch.
"Hawkeye, didn't the elder say that he would lead the 9th region to become one of the top five regions in six months?" A woman dressed in an enchanting dress said: "How long has it been? Why are you retreating now? Do you think it's impossible? Don't be like this even if you can't do it! "
Hawkeye didn't expect that the topic would be brought up again. He bitterly smiled: "The elder said that he will definitely fulfill his promise. Within six months, our 9th region will become one of the top five regions. There is still a long time before the deadline. Everyone, please be patient. Today we will only talk about the 13th branch."
