Chapter 716: Chapter 65: Western Expedition Victory Report and the West Merchant Association’s Intelligence and Gifts (Part 3)

Hmm?

This intelligence is still quite valuable!

The first piece of information is just so-so, Su Li knows that the Blue Mirror Territory might receive support from other nobles.

But even if those nobles provided some provisions and troops, the lord of the Blue Mirror Territory is not much of a threat, comparable at best to a young Liu Bei, who wasn’t very strong in his earlier days.

However, the latter part is different, this relates to the extraordinary abilities of this world. No one knows when an opponent will play a magical trump card and turn the tables.

Especially in this world where divine intervention is present, a 500-man elite knight unit could suddenly receive divine grace after a heroic and blood-soaked struggle, and with that grace, charge forth to overthrow thousands of powerful beastmen. Such things have occurred repeatedly in the Empire’s history.

Su Li doesn’t want the main army to be surrounding the enemy castle, with victory in sight, only for a green ghost cavalry to suddenly attack the flank and cause the entire army to collapse.

So, Su Li furrowed his brows and asked, "Is this intelligence reliable?"

"Absolutely reliable," Master Kote replied. "When the people of the Blue Mirror Territory heard that we were heading to the Hesse Territory, they made all sorts of difficulties for us. But it was a blessing in disguise, as our extended stay in the Blue Mirror Territory allowed us to establish more extensive connections. We’ve heard many elderly people in the territory talk about how this cavalry unit in Blue Mirror Lake has helped the Blue Mirror Territory fend off invasions by green skins and beastmen numerous times. Their ability to hold their ground locally is largely due to this mysterious green cavalry corps."

If many people have heard rumors about this corps, their existence should be beyond doubt.

Su Li nodded slightly and said, "It seems that in future battles with the Blue Mirror Territory, we must pay close attention to this. But as they say, ’respond to soldiers with arms, and water with earth.’ Our knights have the confidence to win! We are followers of the Sun Goddess and believe that the divine power of the Sun Goddess shines upon us, blessing us with repeated victories and the ability to defeat strong enemies!"

Hearing Su Li speak this way, Master Kote also smiled and leaned back into his chair, very relaxed: "Exactly! This is also why we came all this way. We all believe that under the protection of the Sun Goddess, the Hesse Territory will surely defeat strong enemies and continue to grow in power."

"Moreover, I have brought a substantial investment for you, Lord, on this visit. If you don’t mind, I would like to introduce you to a director from our association."

"Huh? Director of the association?" Su Li showed a bit of surprise and said, "My friend, you are my most trusted representative from the association, why introduce anyone else?"

Master Kote sighed helplessly: "Lord, this is also because of your influence. To be honest, when I left your territory last year, I had made plans to hold onto this treasure of yours to increase my influence within the association."

"Initially, everything was going smoothly. After I returned to the West Highlands, the wealth I brought back greatly enhanced my influence within the association. The association even granted me 6000 Golden Crowns, twice what I invested last year in the Hesse Territory."

"Plus, with some funds I gathered and wealth accumulated from family and friends, my caravan prepared goods worth over ten thousand Golden Crowns."

"Just as I was about to embark with great ambition, rumors about you reached the West Province. These rumors were quite bizarre, at first someone said you defeated an army led by a Divine Chosen Demon Commander, then someone corrected them, saying no, you defeated a minion army of a Green Dragon Commander. But others said both were wrong; you actually killed four Chosen Ones. In general, there were all kinds of rumors spreading."

"So before I set off, all this caught the attention of a director."

Su Li couldn’t help but smile, realizing that he was the cause of all this.

But since the other party had come, it wouldn’t be courteous not to meet. So, Su Li smiled and said, "Then please invite this director in."

Soon, under the guidance of high-level attendants, a voluptuous woman walked into the room.

Master Kote stood up and introduced to Su Li: "This is Director Charlotte Elliott from our association, responsible for the association’s external expansion and investment matters."

"Very pleased to meet you, Bauhinia Knight." Charlotte, with poise and grace, extended her hand and said, "I’ve heard much about you. It’s remarkable for you to have defeated several Chosen Ones within your first year in the Border Prince’s Territory."

"I have brought you a little gift, featuring our West High Merchant’s specialty, Blood Pine Wood furniture crafted by master artisans."

Su Li smiled and extended his hand, taking her soft and plump right hand.

Indeed, this Ms. Charlotte’s figure isn’t slim, yet it’s temptingly curvaceous and excites a sense of conquest.

She wore a dark crimson split long dress, the high slit extended down to the most mysterious part of her thighs below the skirt hem, and the flesh-colored garter stockings etched two very distinct grooves on her fleshy thighs.

This made Su Li’s heart race involuntarily; the elements of lust and desire for conquest were vividly present on this woman.

The so-called lust is a slim waist, thick legs, women’s most excellent aesthetics, capable of provoking a man’s desire for conquest!

Especially her slender waist also featured a leather corset, carving out an almost ferociously hourglass shape, making her full chest more beautifully outlined.
