Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 1397 1369. Gang Aden

Listening to Lincoln's uncertain statement, Lan didn't blame him at all.

As mentioned before, although Dudu in Novigrad has reached cooperation with several idle mages, it can be used to transmit messages through magic.

But now the situation in the entire world is like a pot of boiling water on the verge of boiling. Every magic message that is rapidly transmitted in the air is intercepted and eavesdropped by unknown people or forces secretly.

As a result, now, although there are obviously means of magical communication, we still have to rely more on traditional means such as messengers and carrier pigeons.

Until there is greater development in the confidentiality and stable transmission of magic communication technology, it is difficult for this situation to change in the foreseeable future.

It took quite a while for the news from Novigrad to reach Fort Gaucho.

What's more, the information is sent through twists and turns, encrypted and deceived.

The low communication efficiency caused by the distance in space is the biggest problem faced by mankind, even among the human empire that has entered the star sea.

Lincoln's words did not cause much psychological fluctuation in Lan En.

The Dark Alley Gang is just a gang in the end, and its organizational form is doomed. Most of the people inside are a bunch of scum.

Duplicity, being greedy for money, and being a lowly person who has healed his scars and forgotten the pain. These are the group characteristics of gang members.

"I have talked with Francis since the days when we reached cooperation. Eventually, the Dark Alley Gang will be reorganized into an independent company, or a department within the company."

"What's the future for gangsters? You've lost your sights after making so much money. After all, there are still too many idiot gangsters in the dark alley gang who only play ruthlessly on the street. Francis is too slow to educate and reform them. , dogs can’t change eating shit.”

Lan En was more speechless than angry.

Stifling the Dark Alley Gang's financial channels and personnel appointments, and finally reorganizing it into a corporate department.

Lan En, Dudu and Francis have all said this. They are also smart people and can fully understand this development trend.

What makes Lan En helpless is that after he came back this time, the "Dark Alley Gang" was still clearly mentioned in the report, which seemed to be two parallel lines with his other industries in Novigrad. There was no cooperation, but still a clear distinction.

Although he also knew that reorganizing a gang with internal chaos and low-quality members into a more disciplined form would be a slow process. He had only been away for half a year, and things would definitely not be completed.

But it’s not like there’s no sign of this happening, right?

"Papa", Geralt, who was sitting on the chair against the wall, clapped and joked as usual, with a paralyzed expression on his face.

He tilted his head to talk to Berengar next to him, but his voice was deliberately amplified so that everyone could hear him.

"Look! When people open their mouths and say, 'Gangs are all dog-eat-dogs who can't change,' we used to have to be polite when we met the gang leader."

Berengar nodded with deep understanding.

Lan En was even more speechless now. He raised his eyebrows and looked at the two strange old demon hunters sitting on the seat.

"You are polite to the gangster leader because you don't want to cause trouble. You also want to get information and money from others. Don't pretend that you can't beat them, White Wolf. As for you, Belengar... tsk tsk tsk, you Maybe you really need to be polite to others.”

Berengar, who had been nodding in a sinister manner just now, froze, and at the same time pulled the chair under his buttocks and moved it away from Geralt.

With just one sentence, the two old demon hunters who had just teamed up to tease him had internal conflicts.

"Okay, there's no need to waste too much time on unimportant things." After joking with his friends, Lan En seemed much more relaxed. He raised his eyes and looked at Lincoln.

"Now, we can talk about the things that really matter, you know what I'm talking about, Lincoln."

The young clerk nodded. He reached out and pulled out a key from the spine of the large notepad hanging like a crossbody bag.

When handing the key to Lan En, the roaring bear head pendant around the witcher's neck vibrated slightly.

This is a magic key, used to open a magic lock.

From the bottom of the safe in the office, Lincoln pulled out a small box, which was paired with the magic key.

"The magic safe produced by Aretuza." Lincoln pushed the small box in front of Lan En, and when he walked back, he clicked on the small lunchbox-like thing. "It cost three thousand three hundred orens for such a small one."

"Since it is necessary to keep it secret, don't worry so much." Lan En said as he inserted the key indifferently.

Inside the small box is a stack of paperwork that is not too thick. This is the magic of information and intelligence. This stack of paper is worth dozens of times less than one oren, but as long as something is written on it, it is worth protecting with a box of more than three thousand orens. it.

The document itself seems to be some kind of standard account book or notepad, but the emblem printed on the cover according to the standard is not the Temerian white lily that is common in the Wellen region.

Instead, it is a gold and red two-color mountain pattern on a black background.

This is the emblem of the kingdom of Aedirn.

This should be a book used by government personnel in Aden, but now, it appears in Lan En's hand.

"Can't you change to a less eye-catching notebook?" Lan En complained as he took out the documents and flipped through them as before. "It's too obvious to send this thing here."

"No idea, my lord." Lincoln said rationally, "Although Aedirn's army did not take any advantage, they were mainly fighting guerrillas. It was not easy to find a notebook to write something in."

The texts sent from Aden are still mainly information and account books.

About the Scoia'tael forces formed by Saskia and Iorveth, and the local peasant uprising in Aedirn.

Today, the conversation between Lan En, Saskia, and Iorveth in the elven ruins where they killed the [Mist Nest Lord] Tyrannosaurus Rex is gradually being pushed to the point where it has become a reality.

Saskia and Iorveth worked hard to rid the troops they led of the Scoia'tael, a radical anti-humanity group.

After all, according to Lan En and Iorveth's opinion, they must unite most of the human race in order to make the cause of racial equality successful.

The name of the Scoia'tael is only a deterrent, but not unity at all.

But I don't know why, when they found the peasant rebels who had been encircled and suppressed on the land of Aden, the humans seemed to hope that they were Scoia'tael.

They struggled to explain that they were not Scoia'tael, but others were disappointed.

Isn't the scale of the Aedirian army's killing of the peasant rebels much greater than the scale of the Scoia'tael's indiscriminate attacks on humans?

As a result, the Scoia'tael came looking for win-win cooperation. Before they even started to sell the theoretical framework of racial equality that Lann and Iorveth simply established, the peasant rebels in Aedirn were already trying to kill humans because they were good at it. Welcome!

In this situation where Lan End felt dumbfounded, and against the backdrop of Aedirn suppressing the peasant uprisings almost every year, the intimidating properties of the Scoia'tael's name magically encompassed Saskia, Iorveth and the others. The 'unity' pursued.

What can Lan En say? It can only be said that only after working on the ground can we truly understand the complex local reality.

Also - Demavi is indeed a **** bastard.

However, when Saskia and Iorveth successfully established a basic mutual trust with the human peasant rebel army due to the suppression of Aedirn, some problems that had been expected for a long time began to emerge.

Some of the non-human races under Iorveth are still discriminating against human farmers, and even resorting to covert violence out of hatred.

And the same goes for the human side.

Lane recognized the legitimacy of the peasant uprising, but at the same time, his education also taught him the limitations of this movement.

At least from the news sent by Iorveth, Lan En could feel that small groups had begun to split within the rebel army.

These leaders who resisted with passion and fear of a hard life, after having a little success against the Aedirn army, immediately became immersed in their current achievements without any vision or goal.

According to Iorveth's own investigation, some of them have been in private contact with some people in the Aedirn court.

This is only a big problem in the general direction. For example, human farmers are also discriminating against non-human races. The frequency of small frictions between the two groups of people is increasing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and a major conflict is about to brew.

"I can't suppress this conflict, Lan."

This former Scoia'tael guerrilla commander, now a 'friend of the human peasant uprising in Aedirn', said this in the message.

"I am an elf, and my race means that the more I express my opinion on this matter, the more confused I will be. And Sakia is still experiencing and growing, and she cannot handle these things yet. This matter is not a place where she should waste her prestige. , those prestige have more important uses.”

"That purpose we all know!"

"So I must ask for your help now. For our common goals and ideals, now is the time to do what we agreed."

"I ask you to send in strong intervention and supervision from the outside to ensure that in today's fragile and small group, the culture of discrimination is curbed in the early stages."
