For now, trouble is inevitable. They are not from the same world, but Rias knows for sure that this world is a little more chaotic than she thought.
"The president is right. We can only be cautious and careful. This is the best arrangement."
Tacheng Kitten said seriously that he trusted his own president very much and did not trust other people. This was also a very normal thing.
"Just be vigilant and prevent the Black Beast Mercenaries from attacking us. This is the most important thing."
Rias nodded, and after seeing that the rice was cooked, she began to taste it.
"Hey, it tastes pretty good. Pure natural meat."
The kitten from Tacheng ate the food in a cute and adorable manner, and felt that everything was good.
--------------------------------------------------
The next morning, when Ye You woke up, Bolt was standing in front of the military camp, looking at the mercenaries who had just finished breakfast, and spoke casually.
"I have good news for everyone. General Graf of the Sixth Fortress will soon choose independence, completely breaking with the Church, and becoming our most loyal ally."
Bolt looked at the mercenaries present and said these words word by word.
"Wow! Doesn't this mean we're guaranteed to win? That's great! We don't have any weaknesses anymore."
After thinking about this, all the mercenaries of the Black Beast Mercenary Group became excited. To them, the Sixth Fortress had become their partner.
Then wait for the seventh fortress to be taken, and the entire world will fall into their hands again, and there will be no one to organize it.
"Alright, next, we'll negotiate with the higher-ups at the Fourth Fortress. Once we're done, we'll have a chance to successfully capture the Fourth Fortress. I believe any smart person will definitely not oppose us. We're sure to win."
There was a hint of smile on Bolt's resolute face. He was really satisfied with this and did not hate this result.
"Hurray! That means we don't need to attack for now. We can wait for the right moment to capture the first fortress in one fell swoop."
The mercenaries were all very smart. After Bolt's advice, the eyes of those present lit up and they couldn't wait to look ahead.
"That's about it. My idea is very simple. Just do it this way. Everyone, rest first. After a period of silence, we will completely capture the Fourth Fortress."
After Bolt announced the disbandment, Ye You's eyes fell on Keane. He waited for everyone else to disperse and slowly walked towards him.
"I really underestimated you. The Black Beast Mercenary Group's military advisor seems to be even more powerful than I thought."
Ye You stared at Keane and felt full of interest.
"After we defeat the Seven Shields Alliance, our next target will definitely be to eliminate that undercover agent. You must be prepared."
Keane has already informed Bolt of Ye You's problem.
However, there is no time to deal with the civil strife now, and Keane can only wait for this guy to die. This is also Keane's idea, and it is something that must be considered.
"Oh, then I'll wait a while! But if you want to threaten me like this, I'm afraid you're not qualified enough!"
Ye You shook his head, and temporarily did not tear his face with Bolt. There was a hint of sneer on the corner of his mouth, and he did not take this trouble to heart.
"Then let's wait and see! Let's see who will be the final winner."
Keane pushed his glasses and walked away indifferently. Although he couldn't tell the identity of this guy, with his boss's intelligence, he must have discovered the problem with this guy.
At this point, Keane also understood that the showdown would come soon and both sides would definitely take action, but now was not the time to reveal the issue.
Chapter 64 Opportunity, Michelle is ready to act
Chapter 64 Opportunity, Michelle is ready to act
Three days later, in the camp of the Fourth Fortress.
When General Graf chose independence as agreed, they directly surrounded the Seventh Fortress, leaving them little room for choice. Even the Sixth Fortress was besieged.
Relying on Graf's prestige, the top leaders of the Sixth Fortress surrendered, and a large number of people defected to Graf and basically chose to obey.
Basically, Maya only realized everything belatedly after the siege of the Seventh Fortress.
"Damn it! This is a lie! The renowned Paladin Graf actually betrayed the Church and its allies and chose to join forces with Bolt. What on earth is he doing?"
Suddenly thinking of this, Maya's face changed drastically as she held a letter of news from her subordinates' investigation.
Such news was like a bolt from the blue, and it was definitely not good for them. They were already surrounded, and now it meant that there was no reinforcement.
Now the only person the church can use is Claudia, but if there is only one person, nothing can be changed.
There is only one final result, and that is complete death, and the loss of any possibility of resistance.
Maya had established the White-Eyed Wolf Mercenary Group for so long, and had never received such bad news. She had never expected that they would face such a price in the end.
"Maya, it looks bad. How bad is it?"
Looking at Maya who had a grim expression on her face, Rias asked curiously, becoming interested in this.
"General Graf, the most important Paladin Corps in the entire kingdom, has surrendered. He has also colluded with Bolt. We will all be finished next."
Maya really wanted to burst into tears. She didn't expect that after all the hard work she had put in to protect the entire Seven Shields Alliance, she didn't expect that someone would keep holding them back.
"Will you surrender?"
Tacheng Kitten looked at Maya and asked curiously, wanting to see how determined this woman was.
"I can't surrender. Even if I surrender, there won't be any good price. Bolt hates people who go against him the most, so he will definitely punish me severely."
Maya shook her head. She felt extremely hopeless about surrendering, and she knew that even if she surrendered, there would be no good outcome.
"So what will you choose in the end? But if you don't choose, there will be no good outcome, so you have to make a choice in the end."
Rias also understood the situation, knowing full well that if things didn't go right, it was time for them to retreat.
As one of the demon nobles of the underworld, Rias still has a means of escape. If she wants to go back, she can go back at any time.
After all, this was the first time Rias had seen such a weak goddess. Even when she was 12 years old, she didn't feel any threat from this girl.
"I will fight to the end. The Elf Goddess said that I will definitely win in the end, and I firmly believe in it. Now I am the key to turning the situation around, and I don't mind giving it a try."
Maya said deeply, her eyes filled with unprecedented concern. This was the only thought that could be imagined.
"You might as well give it a try, but I have a reminder. I hope you always keep a close eye on the senior management of the Fourth Fortress. Those guys probably don't share our vision."
The fat son of the commander of the Fourth Fortress appeared in Rias's mind, and his eyes were filled with a hint of disgust.
If now wasn't the time to kill the fat guy, Rias would have torn him to pieces without giving him a chance to react. This was also part of his plan.
"I understand, but I don't care about those trash. The only one I care about is Bolt. If there is any danger due to the lack of troops in the Fourth Fortress, I can also suppress it."
Maya said seriously that she was very disgusted with the fat man named Michel. It was simply a fantasy for him to want to take her into his harem.
"Well, this is also our opportunity. Maya, we will cooperate with you on the next mission. Since the Elf Goddess has asked us three brave warriors to assist you, then we will also help."
Rias said solemnly, her eyes also swept over the kitten in Tacheng, and not only that, she also gave Myne a quick glance.
Regarding Main, Rias discovered through her perception that this woman's physical fitness was basically stronger than that of the people in this world, and she also had a special weapon in her hand.
Because the imperial weapon can unleash its strongest attack, it can completely withstand the full force of a high-level demon, but it can only be used once and consumes a lot of mental energy.
On the other side, in the residence of the commander of the Fourth Fortress, Klaus Patillu was enjoying the foot massage from the maid, which made him look very happy. He felt even more fortunate in his heart and seemed to think that he was very lucky.
It’s no wonder that Klaus is quite rich. He weighs at least 300 pounds and is wearing gold and silver jewelry. He looks elegant and luxurious, but he also gives people the impression of a nouveau riche.
"Having these livestock every day can provide me with a lot of money. When the time comes, I will have enough money to spend. This is really great."
Klaus's identity is quite complicated. He is not only the fortress commander of the Fourth Fortress, but also the president of the Kingdom's Patilru Chamber of Commerce. His subordinates also control a lot of wealth.
It can be said that the place where Klaus lives is comparable to a palace, and it gives him a pretty good feeling.
Just as Klaus was enjoying himself, heavy footsteps were heard outside the room.
Turning around, Klaus was surprised to find a fat blond boy walking in. Although he was not as heavy as himself, he could not hide his small black eyes.
-------------------------------------------------- ---
"Father, you're still enjoying yourself here. Something terrible has happened. News just came from the Sixth Fortress that the Seven Shields Alliance, assigned by General Graf, has decided to make the Sixth Fortress their own territory. They've already surrounded the Seventh Fortress. This means no one will come to rescue us from now on."
Michelle thought of this, looked at her father, and said helplessly.
"What? You chose to join Bolt so quickly? I really misjudged him. Then, we will be in danger. If Bolt breaks in, our Chamber of Commerce and its wealth will be directly looted."
Klaus said seriously that he believed no one valued wealth more than him. There was nothing more painful than having his things robbed by these people.
"It seems that we have no choice but to retreat overnight and leave this fortress as soon as possible. We no longer have any other options."
Suddenly thinking of this, Klaus immediately stood up. He felt that the most unfortunate thing had happened to them directly, and such a result was quite excessive.
Claude Patillu is, after all, the president of the Chamber of Commerce and controls certain resources. He doesn't want all his wealth to be robbed by Bolt and his group of soldiers. If that happens, he will be doomed.
"Wait, Father, I think you're on the wrong track. We still have a chance, why don't we give it a try?"
Michelle looked at her father, her eyes becoming brighter and brighter.
"Oh, my clever son, what are your thoughts? Please speak freely and express your judgment directly! As long as it is beneficial to us, we can give it a try."
Klaus didn't mind. As long as his son made progress, that was the best outcome.
"Father, what do you think of the current situation?"
Michelle was not in a hurry. She looked at her father and expressed her opinion.
"The situation is dire. The Seven Shields Alliance has basically failed. Bolt's Black Beast Mercenaries are on the rise, and even the famous General Graf is his ally. It seems like even if we run, we won't be able to escape anywhere."
Claude understood something instantly, frowned, and gradually became clear about some things.
"Yes, since we can't escape anymore, why don't we choose an ally that is more beneficial to us and help the Chamber of Commerce grow stronger? What do you think?"
Michelle looked at her father and seemed to have some interest, so she couldn't help but speak, fully expressing her attitude.
"Of course we can, but I don't know if Bolt is willing to accept us."
Klaus also had this expectation, but he was still a little hesitant, wondering whether Bolt was willing to accept them and give them a certain status.
"No problem. Moreover, the two pig-headed brothers from the original Seven Shields Alliance also gained considerable benefits. In the end, they obtained the commodity of Princess Alicia, so this is also a great opportunity for us."
Michelle proceeded step by step and began to persuade his father, hoping that his father would listen to him as soon as possible and realize the great revival of the Chamber of Commerce.

"That's true. Those two pig-headed men are really lucky. They actually received such an award. If it were us, we wouldn't be willing to give it up."
Klaus was also a little tempted, but had not yet made a complete decision.
At this moment, a white-haired butler looked at Klaus in front of him, his eyes filled with a hint of excitement, and spoke directly.
"Master, the young master has really grown up. For us, the possibilities are quite great. After all, the current Chamber of Commerce has slowed down its development. If we can take advantage of Bolt's momentum, we might be able to develop even better."
Thinking of this, the housekeeper next to him also made suggestions, and he understood more clearly what he should do.
"But what should we do? If we go directly to Bolt, we will most likely be killed by that crazy woman Maya."
When Klaus thought of this, a trace of solemnity appeared on his slightly plump face. He was really a little afraid of the woman, so there was a trace of fear and worry on his face.
"Then I have a better idea. I can secretly provide all the defense maps of the First Fortress, including those of the White Wolf Mercenary Group. We transport supplies every day, so we know the situation of the Mayan Mercenary Group very well."
A hint of sneer appeared on Michel's face. He saw that his way of persuasion was almost successful, so he was even happier.
"This is a good idea, but I still feel that this is a bit inappropriate."
At the critical moment, Klaus' greedy face showed a hint of embarrassment, and he spoke hesitantly.
Although Klaus has no feelings for the Seven Shields Alliance, with his financial support, the benefits the Seven Shields Alliance gives him are really not too bad at all.
If he betrayed her now, he didn't know how many people would look at him. This made Claude a little sad, and he didn't feel whether what he did was right or wrong.
"Yes! Is it right to change sides now?"
There was a hint of hesitation on the butler's face, as if he had not expected such a development, and he couldn't help feeling a little nervous.
It was easy for them to betray the Seven Shields Alliance, but as prominent figures, such a betrayal really made them feel a little uncomfortable.
Seeing that these people had not completely given up even after he had said this, Michelle felt a little anxious. He also knew that his father was sometimes just a little sentimental.
The same is true in other aspects. They are no less greedy than those soldiers, so he thought about it and spoke in a slow tone.
"I heard that the two pig-headed men who were the royal merchants for the palace have died. Now the entire Black Beast Mercenary Group is facing serious logistics problems. Although they can resupply through looting, it's not a good thing after all. Perhaps we can help them from behind and gain some benefits from it."
Michelle found the right opportunity and thought of what happened after the two pig-headed brothers were killed. He couldn't help but take this opportunity to talk directly to his father.
"It is said that he was killed by a mysterious person, and even Princess Alicia was taken away. What do you think he was going to do with this?"
Looking at his son, Klaus was a little confused, wondering what his smart son was thinking.
