Chapter 153: The Governor General

In fact, there is no more prominent name in the southwestern province of the Kingdom of Bemon.

Montgomery Tiger, the commander of the garrison army of the southwestern province and the supreme administrative governor, holds military and political power and is undoubtedly the number one figure in the province!

This dazzling figure actually came to the Twilight Hotel to wait for him, and Leon was naturally surprised.

He once heard that Montgomery Tiger has the strength of a sixth-level dragon soul warrior, and looking at the entire Bemon Kingdom is also a top figure. It is naturally extremely easy to suppress such a small second-level soul armor warrior as Reon.

"It turns out to be the Governor, and your arrival is the honor of Leon!"

Although he was shocked, on the surface, Leon was still calm and bowed to the other party according to the noble etiquette, neither humble nor arrogant.

A look of admiration flashed through Montgomery's tiger eyes. He nodded as a gift and returned to the sofa: "Let's sit down and talk!"

With a lot of doubt, Leon sat down opposite him. He didn't understand what the governor, who was busy with a lot, had to ask him for something.

In Tormond, Leon is just a small person.

"I heard that a few days ago, you were assassinated here by an assassin and almost died..." Montgomery stared at Leon and said, "After investigation by the garrison, it was confirmed that this was a dark mercenary team from the Western Xinjiang province, and the other two assassins were still under investigation."

"Baron Leon, it seems that someone must take your life!"

A provincial governor is still concerned about such a small matter? Leon felt aroused in his heart and replied frankly: "No one can make everyone like it, and it is not the first time that the assassination against me has happened."

"I know the Blood Wolf Team at Rock Fortress has a conflict with you..." Montgomery said meaningfully, "But I can guarantee that they won't do such a despicable thing."

"Three days ago, a fire broke out in an old house not far from here. After extinguishing it, a body almost burned to ashes was found from it. It was finally confirmed that it was Deser, the eldest son of Viscount Meller of the Colinworth family."

"Baron Leon, what do you think about this?"

The Colinworth family, Viscount Meller's eldest son! Leon's heart was so clear that it seemed that the Colinworth family was increasingly unable to tolerate his existence, or to be precise, the rise of Thalling.

Montgomery clearly understood the grudge between him and the Colinworth family, and the words hinted at the mastermind behind the assassination at the Twilight Hotel.

But there are still many doubts about this matter. If Deser was the mastermind, why would he die in the fire? He is a powerful knight.

"I am deeply shocked and regretful about this..." Leon sighed: "Colinworth is a neighbor of Thal's neighbor, and I really don't want to see such a tragedy happen."

Montgomery shook his head: "Baron Leon, I find you have the potential of a politician. Do you really don't understand what I want to say?"

The governor-general sneered: "In the southwest province, the one who hopes you will die the most is Viscount Mele. He has been coveting Thaler for more than a day. In order to be promoted to the Count, this Viscount has spent countless efforts!"

"Assassination of aristocrats is a serious crime, and I don't like to see someone causing trouble in the city of Tormond, but Deser is dead, and there is no evidence to prove this, but I think Viscount Meller will definitely put all the hatred on you!"

Leon had to admit that Montgomery's words made sense, and I'm afraid that from the moment Deser died, he and the Colinworth family had an irresolvable hatred.

Although this is not his fault at all.

"Then let him do it!" Leon smiled faintly, who is afraid of whom!

"Baron Leon, you probably don't know that I have noticed you since you first came to Tormond!" Montgomery said in a shocking way: "You fought with the goblins in the Howling Forest, fought bloody battles to eliminate countless enemies, captured the city of Doraetu. Finally, it was not until the Third Legion of the Elven Unicorns appeared that they were forced to cross the Nucang River and return to the Kingdom with their tribes."

"With your achievements, it is more than enough to give an earl, but is what you get equal to what you give?"

Leon's breathing was suffocated. He did not expect that Montgomery knew him so deeply.

"Baron Leon, I see your efforts at Thalling. Do you have a dream in your heart, dreaming of one day returning to the Howling Forest, which originally belonged to our Bemon Beasts?"

Montgomery's tiger eyes flashed with a dazzling divine light: "I can tell you that this is also my dream!"

"But the current kingdom is no longer the Bemon of the past. Those noble lords, wealthy merchants are indulging in enjoyment. They have long fallen into worms. They have no courage and fearlessness of the Bemon Beast clan. They only want to negotiate and compromise with the Elves clan, and are willing to give up all the territory in the south of the Henan Province!"

"Baron Reon, do you want to be with them, or are you willing to stand on my side and work together for the revival of the kingdom?"

Montgomery's passionate words hit Leon's heart like a heavy hammer. His thoughts and opinions coincided with Leon, and even made Leon feel a strong feeling of finding like-minded people.

But Leon is not a passionate boy of seventeen or eighteen years old. He knew very well that Montgomery's real intention was to say the last two sentences.

This is to ask him to re-take the team!

As a small local lord, the benefits of surrendering to Montgomery are undoubtedly much greater than those of the temple. After all, Montgomery holds secular power.

With his support, the Colinworth family would not dare to get involved in Thrall's leadership, and the garrisons of the Rock Fortress would not cause trouble for Leon, and might in turn give strong support.

The development of the Salter leader will become much easier. As long as Leon can make military achievements with Montgomery and be promoted to viscount, it is not a dream...

"Governor, thank you for your invitation, but I am just a little lord. I just want to manage my own territory well. I don't want to and have no ability to intervene in the great affairs of the kingdom." Leon said in a careful tone: "So, please forgive me for your kindness."

People can stand without trust! Leon did not forget that when he and the Crazy Hammer Tribe were in the most difficult time, it was the support from the temple that helped him, rather than the noble governor in front of him.

In fact, it was precisely the battle group under this command that almost forced the Mad Hammer Tribe into a desperate situation.

Now Montgomery wants him to change his camp and betray the temple. If Leon agrees, what is the difference between them and those shameless and treacherous guys?

Leon also knew very well that the consequences of his rejection of Montgomery today may be endless trouble.

But he will never regret his choice!

"very good!"

The craze in Montgomery's eyes disappeared cleanly, and replaced by a coldness: "Baron Leon, I hope you can stick to it!"

He didn't say anything more, got up and strode out of the room.

The shaman stared at Leon coldly, and looked at Leon as if he was looking at a dead man, leaving immediately after Montgomery's footsteps.

Leon's expression was very calm, as if he didn't know that he had just offended the big man who could easily crush him, so he picked up the kettle and poured himself a glass of water.

Drinking the boiled water that was completely tasteless, Leon was savoring it carefully that the provincial governor general found his real purpose.

Just to win over himself to join his camp?

On the main street outside the Twilight Hotel, Montgomery boarded a black carriage parked by the roadside, and several casual knights leaned over silently.

The white-robed shaman who entered the carriage said hatefully: "This Leon is so ungrateful, do you want it..."

Although the shaman and the temple priest are essentially no different, the latter is only faithful to the temple, while the former serves tribes or other forces. This white-robed shaman is a follower of Montgomery and one of the most important aides around him.

Montgomery waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about him. When he hits his head and he will eventually understand. Don't deliberately create any obstacles for him."

As the top figure in the Beaumont Kingdom, the sixth-level dragon soul warrior, Montgomery has his own mind and demeanor.

Although Leon's refusal made him very upset, he definitely disdained to play those low-level calculation tricks.

"Governor, why do you value this little lord so much?" asked the shaman in confusion.

"This Baron Leon is very weak now, but don't forget that he is closely related to the miracles of the Tormond Temple more than half a year ago!" Montgomery said in a deep voice: "When I see him today, I can be sure that he is a God-Blessed Warrior!"

God-Blessed Warriors! Of course, the Great Shaman understands what this means, because Montgomery himself is also a God-Blessed Warrior.

"Just understand, don't let others know!" Montgomery said lightly: "Farnes must have known, so he spent a lot of effort to protect this kid.

"He is also a rare figure in the temple, but he is not the same as us, and his weight in the Senate is even lighter."

"It's a bit strange to say. I feel like this kid has the blood of my tiger descendants..." A trace of deep thought appeared in his eyes: "Let the Secret Guard continue to stare at him, and report to me in time if you have anything to do!"

"As for the order, sir!" The shaman bowed slightly, hesitated for a moment and continued, "Sir, Miss Corinna left Tormond City in the morning."

"I get it..." Montgomery nodded, his eyes becoming strange: "I really didn't expect that she would fall in love with this kid. I'm afraid she would leave this time..."

He didn't continue talking, leaned against the seat and slowly closed his eyes.

"What a pity..."
