It was already a few days before returning to Ark Harbor.Sitting in the carriage, Alan opened the curtain and looked out.When I came back this time, there was no welcoming guard of honor, no flying flags, and no people to welcome me.All Allen saw was a faint sadness hidden in the corner, deep in people's expressions, or in the dim sunlight.Even the people walking on the street seemed to have lighter steps than usual, as if they were afraid of disturbing anyone.

"It seems that the earl's situation is not optimistic."

Sitting on the other side of Ellen, Lucy retracted her gaze to look out the window.Looking at Allen again: "What do you plan to do."

"Fulfill my previous promise." Allen said without thinking.

Beside Lucy, Adele said disapprovingly: "You really consider Auban a friend? Don't forget our identity. The current situation is very good for us. You should control his eldest son. First control from behind the scenes, and finally Take over Auban’s foundation and territory. Adding Daniel’s territory, then we have a better start."

"I know my identity very well, and I also know the current situation. But Adele, sometimes, there are some things, you can't always put interest first. Since I promised Oban, I won't regret it. This is a checkmate. The most basic morality of the person." Alan's eyes were lowered, and his gaze fell on his knees.

Adele shrugged her shoulders and said, "Well, morality. You men always talk about things, I will make a suggestion. You are the head, of course you have the final say."

"After seeing Oban, we will go back to Storm City, and probably will return to Earth once. Now this is basically stable, and then we have to consolidate and develop, and then we can continue to advance northward and expand our territory. I want to take this time to go back and make preparations for cargo movement between the two places. A regular route protected by the federal government must be determined, and there are some business partners. In this regard, probably Leon can help." Allen smiled.

Adele rolled her eyes and said, "I just hope that guy won't lose his life in the surface war."

"No." Allen was full of confidence in Leon.

At this time, the carriage drove into Baibao and stopped in front of the square.Allen cleaned up, tidied his clothes, and got out of the carriage.Lucy and Adele followed behind him, and Maes, the butler who had been waiting for a long time, hurriedly greeted him: "Master Ellen, you are finally here."

Allen nodded and asked in a deep voice, "How is the situation with the earl?"

Mace smiled bitterly: "It's getting worse, hey. We have hired the best doctors, including the master you sent. But the earl’s condition still hasn’t gotten better, and it’s getting worse every day. The earl is in his bedroom, today he thinks The will is formally made. A few witnesses are specially invited, so you are the only one left."

"Please lead the way."

The second daughter of Lucy and the guards were taken to rest in the other rooms of the castle. Allen walked quickly through the corridors of the Neiburg with Metz. The entire White Castle was shrouded in layers of sorrow, even those sprinkled on the carpet through the windows. The sun also looked so pale.In the corridor outside the earl’s bedroom, several chairs were temporarily placed for the visiting guests to rest.When Allen arrived, there were already several people sitting outside the corridor.

Among them are the earl’s eldest son Giles, the viscount Graar, the earl’s wife, and relatives such as Jola.Seeing Alan, Ruola greeted him first.Her face was tired, her hair was not as shiny as before, and her eyes were covered with red threads.It seems that all the hard work of taking care of the count these days is written on her face, and Joola nodded and said: "You are here, brother is waiting for you."

Allen nodded, and Mace had entered the bedroom to report.After a moment, he walked out and whispered, "Master Ellen, the earl invites you in."

Hearing these words, people in the hallway looked different.Graar lowered his head to conceal the resentment in his eyes.Giles looked a little rushed, but his mother bowed her head in tears.With inconsistent gazes, Allen pushed open the bedroom door, and an air mixed with the pungent smell of medicine, a touch of blood and other smells poured out.This room was so lifeless, the god of death's eyes had been fixed here, and there was no vitality in the air.

The bedroom is covered with a dark red carpet, the color that usually looks noble, but now it gives a sense of heaviness that cannot be ignored.The entry is a set of sofa sets for rest. The elegant wallpaper decorated with rose patterns extends to the depths of the room.After passing a group of partitions with obvious oriental style, Allen first saw a large bed with a frame plated with luxurious Ryukyu gold color. The bed was covered with snow-white trousers, and the two sides were folded hanging yarn.Count Aubin was sitting on the bed with a soft pillow on his back.He seems to be in good spirits today, one hand is turning over the book of poems, and the other is lying flat on the edge of the bed.Baggins was giving him an injection, and the two maids next to him were acting as nurses, changing the bandages on Oban's chest with clean water.

As soon as the almost black bandages entered the clear water, they immediately turned into oppressive dark red blood. It made Alan's chest seem to be blocked by something, making him quite uncomfortable.The bedroom was very quiet, whether it was Baggins or the maids, their movements were light.Only the earl's heavy breathing sounded, it was like a leaking bellows, it sounded so hard for every group of breathing of the earl.

Hearing the movement, the earl raised his head.With a golden paper face barely twisting a smile, Orban said in a hoarse voice: "You are here, friend."

He looked at Baggins: "Master, I want to talk to Allen alone."

Baggins nodded, waved his hand to let the two maids go down first with their things, and then came to Allen's side and whispered: "I just gave him an injection, it's refreshing. But don't talk too long, the count wants more Making a will will consume a lot of his energy."

"I know."

When everyone went down, Allen walked to the bed and brought a chair to sit down.Auban stretched out his hand to him, and the earl's palm was trembling slightly, like the old man decayed in the wind.Allen sighed in his heart, and held out his hands with the earl.Auban smiled and said: "I have been conceited in my life to make friends all over the world, with a wide range of contacts, covering a small half of the empire. Although the leadership is in the south, far from the north, which is a place of political and commercial prosperity. I believe that one day I will also stand in Above the imperial court, my Ridley family will eventually become a famous family in the empire."

Speaking of this, Oban smiled bitterly: "But all of this, after all, disappears like a bubble in the sun."

Looking at the emaciated earl on the bed, Alan felt slightly sad.Oban did not accomplish much in personal force, but he was also considered ambitious.But now, full of ambitions can only be depressed step by step under the torture of illness, which is indeed sighing.

"After I die, the two earls of Reckard and Kent will definitely take the opportunity to attack. These two guys are not to worry about before. But Giles is still too young, if the force is justified, they are only girls after all. And the Marquis of Iron Spear has already responded, Hoy said that he would do a good job in the marriage as soon as possible. If Ra is gone, Giles will be difficult to support. There is also Grall, I originally planned to deal with Daniel after the war is over. Now, I can't do that. But keeping him by Giles's side is always a hidden danger." Oban shook his head and sighed. It is not difficult to hear the internal and external troubles of the territory from his words.

Originally, Oban had already made arrangements for these issues, but unfortunately he has run out of time, and many plans are simply too late to implement.

Allen patted his hand back and said, "I will try my best to help Earl Giles."

Hearing this, Oban squeezed a smile: "Sir Alan, I have known who you are from the day you joined me. Long Zeng asked me to beware of you because you are an ambitious person. One day when I can no longer tolerate your ambitions here, maybe I will also become the object of your conquest. So I have some arrangements that were originally reserved for you. Unexpectedly, now you are the only person I can entrust. "

"If you want to develop further, Rhein is an important bridge for you. But you can't trust him too much. My suggestion is to maintain an appropriate interest relationship with Rhein, which is conducive to the development of your career." Seriously said: "With your ability, the hereditary earl is not a problem. I think the imperial marquis is your real goal. If you can step into the holy realm, then the imperial will probably welcome the fifth duke."

Allen declined to comment, but just smiled.Oban had tried his best to overestimate his ambitions, but Oban did not know the origin of his identity, so he did not know the blueprint in Allen's mind. The Balekan Empire was just a staged goal.

Oban wanted to prop up his body, Allen quickly helped him up.He smiled and said: "If you can come today, I am in a lot of energy, so let's make a will. Ellen, please go outside and call in the relevant people."

After a while, relevant figures designated by Oban walked into the bedroom one after another.In addition to the people in the corridor before, there was another clerk.Allen naturally gave the position of the bedside to the clerk so that he could record conveniently.The earl’s wife leaped on the edge of the bed on the other side of Aubin, holding the earl’s hand in tears.

Oban wiped away the tears from her face, and said softly: "I invite everyone to come today to be a testimony for me. I am no longer able to speak, so I have to make arrangements for the future before I can speak. Every decision mentioned is well thought out and there is no influence of other third-party factors. Therefore, after my death, this will must be implemented and implemented. If anyone violates, I will entrust Sir Allen with severe punishment. Allen Sir will be the witness and defender of this will. I grant him the right to maintain the smooth execution of this will. When necessary, force can be used. This is the first article of the will!"

Everyone swept their gazes at Alan, and no one thought that Oban would trust Alan so much.r1058
