Chapter 27 Chaos is the ladder

The name "half-elf vampire" made Karen's eyes look dangerous for a moment, but it only flashed for a moment before returning to normal because he understood what Granny wanted to express.

"no problem."

Karen agreed. Food and accommodation would definitely be provided. As for the salary, she would decide after confirming Granny's work ability.

"If you are truly worth three gold royals, then there is no problem in paying you three gold royals a month."

Karen said seriously that what he needed was real talent, and he would not be stingy as long as they showed enough value.

Again, Karen is not a vampire, he is a vampire. Compared with some humans, he dare not call himself a vampire.

"Half-elf brother, you should trust the credibility of the dwarves. Oak never lies. Wait and hand over your three gold dragons!"

Whether he has the ability or not is another matter. Granny Oak is very confident, and Karen already believes him to a certain extent.

"Pack your things and leave tomorrow morning."

Karen put away the "Blood Meteor" and sent Granny Oak away.

Although the dwarf was very reluctant to leave and wanted to take a few more looks, he did not force it. Instead, he happily returned to his room and began to pack up.

Karen went downstairs and sat in the hotel lobby for a while, but he didn't find any interesting people, nor did he find any prey that looked delicious at first glance. It was not until Uther Cremona returned that he went upstairs with the human knight.

"Master Karen, I have already made an appointment with the merchant to load the goods early tomorrow morning. After loading, we will set off."

Uther reported the situation to Karen very respectfully. He found that the price of grain seeds had dropped, but the price of grain had increased.

"It's normal. There are fewer settlements buying grain and seeds, but more disaster victims are pouring into Shilin Port. It's only natural."

Karen shared the news he had received with Uther, which made Uther look nervous for a moment, but after thinking about the things left by Elena and Lord Karen in the camp, his expression returned to normal and he became excited.

"This is an opportunity! We can bring back the victims of the Shilin Port!"

Uther suddenly realized that this was a great opportunity for their development!

Other settlements suffered disasters and were destroyed by the beastmen. Even if only a few people escaped, the number gathered together would be a considerable number, and they could take these people back with them on this trip.

Karen nodded. He had just thought of this, but he was afraid that these people had become timid and dared not leave Shilin Port again.

"There are always people who are unwilling to give up. Besides, it's not easy to survive in Shilin Port. Those merchants treat them as lambs to be slaughtered. If they continue to stay here, they might end up being enslaved."

Uther analyzed very calmly. He knew those merchants too well. There was nothing that could not be sold, especially for merchants in the New World. People could also be a commodity.

Just now in the market, someone asked him if he wanted to buy "farm tools". These "farm tools" were naturally serfs. Serfs were not human beings, but tools used by nobles and farmers to do their work.

"The New World is truly a lawless place."

Uther was quite emotional. Of course, he was not a moral gentleman. He just felt that the New World was more chaotic than he had initially thought. With beastmen, greedy businessmen, and vampires, those who came to the New World to seek opportunities were truly blessed.

"It's in lawless places that ambitious people can show their talents. What chance does someone like you have in the Empire? Can someone like the Earl of Stone Forest Port achieve a class leap in the Empire? Uther, for ambitious people, chaos is a ladder, a ladder to climb step by step."

Karen patted Uther on the shoulder and encouraged the middle-aged knight. Forty years old is the age to work hard!

“Chaos is a ladder”

Uther repeated it, his eyes gradually becoming firm, so the more chaotic this new world is, the better. With Lord Karen as his solid backing, he has nothing to fear.

"By the way, Lord Karen, I heard from the merchants that the Church of the Radiant Dawn seems to be planning to establish a branch church in Stone Forest Port."

Uther thought about the news he had just overheard. This was not good news, because the Church of the Radiant Dawn was the mortal enemy of vampires and had been hunting them all over the continent. "They're not coming for me. Let's just focus on our own business."

Karen didn't care much about it. The main purpose of Dawn was to locate where he was, so he would have been dealt with long ago and would not have waited until now. It would just be a matter of him coming to Shilin Port less often in the future.

"Yes, my lord."

Uther was relieved. As long as Karen, his backer behind the scenes, was safe, he was confident that he could quickly expand his power in the chaos.

The two chatted for a while about tomorrow's arrangements, and then Uther went back to rest. Taking advantage of the night, Karen went out for a walk.

Karen really didn't like the feeling of hiding in the city during the day. It made him feel very humiliated, but there was nothing he could do about it, so he might as well just stay in the hotel.

At night, there is no need to hide anymore, because night is Karen's home turf.

But Karen didn't stay outside for long and returned to the hotel.

Because Shilin Port is so smelly!

Even the noble and elegant "Blood King" couldn't help but curse.

Christmas Eve passed and the sun rose as usual the next day.

Granny Oak got up early, carrying his luggage and waiting in front of Karen's door, fearing that Karen would abandon him.

He didn't have much luggage, just a hammer, a hand axe, a steel round shield, and a dark-colored armor on his body.

How can I put it? He was able to escape for a reason. No matter where he was, being able to fight a little bit was a sure thing.

"Squeak."

The door opened and Karen glanced at Granny Oak standing in front of the door.

This guy was also a warrior? That wasn't surprising, as the dwarves he knew seemed to be quite capable fighters, each with a strong and tough body.

"Half-elf brother?"

The dwarf called out tentatively.

Karen was now fully dressed in a black robe and a mask.

"Let's go."

Karen said something, confirmed his identity, and then walked in front. Granny Oak hurriedly followed with his short legs.

"You should eat something first."

Karen sat down in the hotel lobby. Uther and his companions had already gone to the market to load goods and would come back later to recruit people.

"Food and lodging included?"

Granni asked, Karen nodded helplessly, and then the dwarf ordered a glass of beer without hesitation. Dwarves can not eat, but they cannot not drink, and drinking is not divided into morning, noon and night, they can drink whenever they want.

Soon, Uther returned to the hotel with the caravan, and the carriages filled with large and small bags instantly attracted a lot of people's attention.

Uther was not at all nervous. He stopped at the door of the hotel, stood on the carriage and started shouting to recruit people. There was no limit on the number of people, gender, or type of work. As long as they were not disabled and still had the ability to work, everyone would be accepted.
