Chapter 377 Sir, Times Have Changed 1

Pinehaven City Lord Mansion, City Lord's office.

Within this spacious room with extremely luxurious decorations.

The crystal tassel chandelier inlaid with Light Crystal Stones and top-grade gems illuminated the splendid golden space, making it dazzling

Everywhere one looked, be it the masterfully crafted Advanced Magic Redwood Desk, the Magic Beast Fur Soft Carpet, or the golden fireplace with exquisitely carved patterns.

Everything exuded magnificent opulence, causing one to feel dizzy.

The dazzling exquisite murals on the walls and the display of numerous precious artifacts.

This luxurious room also gave off the impression of a museum exhibition hall.

In short, everything was suffused with a thick aroma of wealth.

Needless to say, within this room.

Even the cheapest item was something ordinary civilians could never hope to possess in their lifetime of hard work.

It also demonstrated the owner's immense wealth.

At this moment, a middle-aged nobleman dressed in luxurious clothes and with a fierce expression on his face was sitting behind his soft desk.

He casually swirled the amber-colored liquid in the wine glass in his hand while lazily looking at the two subordinates standing respectfully in front of him, yawning, "Tell me.

How have our recent operations been going?"

"Hehe, reporting to City Lord, our recent operations against the Otherworldly Lords around Pinehaven City have been incredibly successful.

We have already eliminated over a hundred Otherworldly Lords hiding in various places with our subordinates.

And as per your instructions, their servants were slaughtered and their mansions burned to the ground.

They have completely vanished from this land."

The lean middle-aged man on the other side smiled ingratiatingly before responding.

"Very good, the more these despicable Otherworlders are eliminated, the better."

After taking a sip of the amber-colored liquid in his glass, the fierce-faced middle-aged nobleman nodded in satisfaction, "On my territory,

these ants with unknown origins shall not be allowed to exist.

Order everyone in Pinehaven City that as soon as they find an Otherworldly Lord, they must eliminate them on the spot, not leaving a single one."

"Your subordinate obeys, City Lord."

Hehe, with a sinister Gleam in his eyes, the lean man respectfully replied, "I guarantee,

There won't be a single Otherworldly Lord in Pinehaven City and its surrounding areas."

Hearing that, the fierce-faced middle-aged nobleman turned his lazy gaze to the other fat man,

Indifferently asked, "How have the revenues been for this month?"

"Reporting to City Lord, the revenue has been very stable."

Upon hearing this, the fat man bowed down with a smiling face, "Apart from the numerous businesses within and outside Pinehaven City,

Especially Redarrow City under the jurisdiction of Viscount Tas, it's almost time for the harvest month of the Magic Pearls.

Since recently, as per the City Lord's plan, we have increased the scale of Magic Pearl monsters breeding,

the Lord's income will surely reach a new unprecedented height."

"Excellent."

Having drank all the amber-colored liquid in his cup, the middle-aged nobleman revealed a satisfied smile on his face,

He casually said, "It's a good thing, I have my eye on some rare items from the Dark Elf Race. Now, I can finally take them all."

"Lord Loki is wise."

The fat man on the other side bowed, immediately flattering, "Years ago, if it weren't for your decisive actions in taking Redarrow City as our territory,

We wouldn't have this steady money tree."

"Indeed, indeed, Lord Loki's strategic vision is truly rare in the world!" The lean man on the side chimed in unwillingly.

Then, a worried look appeared on his pale face,"However, in the past year, the population of Redarrow City has suffered severe losses, which I fear will greatly affect our efficiency."

"That's true, I've told Tas many times to find a way to increase manpower, but there's been no progress."

Putting down his wine glass, Rocky's turbid eyes rolled, thinking, "If this goes on, I'm afraid our money tree in Redarrow City will wither sooner or later."

"Lord Loki, your subordinate has an excellent idea." The fat man smiled ingratiatingly, bowed slightly,

And stepped forward, "Recently, I've been so bored that our Pinehaven City prison has become overcrowded. How about sending all these criminals to Redarrow City?

This way, even if Redarrow City runs out of people and becomes empty, we will still have a continuous supply of manpower to transport."

Although the lives of these civilians are not important, we still have to keep our business going."

"It seems you prepared early."

Nodding in satisfaction, Lord Rocky's fierce face expressed approval, "Very well, let's do this for now.

Also, I heard that there was an internal strife in Milan Town which greatly weakened its forces and changed to a new young City Lord, this is the perfect time to take advantage.

Making it the second Redarrow City is a good choice."
