Fontaine Grand Stage, come if you are destined to

"They are trying to drive us into a desperate situation and completely destroy the Thorn Rose Society and the residents of Gray River."

The three of them immediately realized that those nobles were not only targeting the residents of Gray River, but were not going to let the Thorn Rose Society go either.

If the Thorn Rose Society took on the responsibility of relocating the residents of Gray River, it would not take long for the Society to be completely destroyed if it could not resettle them in Baisong Town. Moreover, because those who could not be resettled were not citizens of Fontainebleau, they could be labeled as traitors at any time.

And if the ThornRose Society chooses to stand idly by, then the ThornRose Society will completely lose its foundation and trust, and eventually self-destruct!

What a vicious method!

Chapter 27: Entering the Game

"Ms. Navia...it's not that I don't want to help with this matter, but I really can't afford it."

"Ever since Mr. Carres was accused of killing his friend, my business as a brother chamber of commerce of the Thorn Rose Society has also been greatly affected. I have only just managed to make up for the previous losses recently."

"Of course, I definitely don't believe that Mr. Cares would do such a thing. He must have been wronged!"

Seeing Marcelle's embarrassed look, Navia's heart actually didn't fluctuate much. The successive blows made her heart numb.

And even if the other party can really come up with some money, what can it do? The city cannot accept them, and if they leave Grey River, the only place they can go is the mountains and forests full of monsters and abnormally programmed clockwork mechanisms.

Not to mention how much it would cost to open up a safe place in such a place, maintaining the transportation of daily necessities for tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people is also a considerable expense, which would put their already limited funds under strain.

"Let me put it this way, Miss Navia. Mr. Cares was very kind to me in the past. It can be said that I wouldn't be where I am today without Mr. Cares."

Marcelle seemed to have seen Navia remain silent for a long time, so she gritted her teeth and spoke.

"I am willing to sell part of my property so that I can have money to help the Rose Thorn Society."

"Please don't do this, Uncle Marcelle."

After hearing what Marcelle said, Navia's face was shocked and she spoke quickly.

"Thank you for your kindness, but the Rose Thorn Society still has enough funds in the short term. When the funds are insufficient, let's think of a solution together."

Navia looked at Marcelle, her eyes filled with unspeakable sadness.

If Baisong Town could accept these Gray River residents, Navia would shamelessly beg them to lend her some money for the sake of their safety.

But now all the cities in Fontaineland will not accept most of the Grey River residents. Even if Marcelle sells all his properties for money, it will only be a drop in the bucket.

"I'll think of other ways. Thank you for trusting my father so much, Uncle Marcelle."

After hearing what Navia said, Marcelle showed a somewhat weird smile on his face, but Navia and the other two did not notice the abnormality on his face because of the annoying things.

"Ms. Navia, everyone has seen Mr. Carres' character. He must be innocent. I hope Miss Navia can catch the real murderer as soon as possible!"

"I will!"

When Navia said this, her eyes were full of determination and anger.

Seeing that she had wasted too much time in Baisong Town and because she was worried about the situation in Gray River, Navia had to say goodbye to Marcelle.

"Okay, Miss Navia, please be careful on your way."

"If there's anything you can do for me, please come find me!"

"I am also one of you. I will try my best to help you even if it costs me everything I have!"

Watching Navia and the other two walking away, the disguise on Marcelle's face completely disappeared, revealing a hint of murderous intent, but it was quickly covered up.

"There's no need to do it yourself. The Thorn Rose Society will become history on its own."

"But Fontaine must be in a very chaotic situation right now, and the supervision over other cities must have been weakened a lot. Perhaps..."

"Viniel, wait for me, I will definitely bring you back to me as soon as possible!"

……

Returning to the Gray River area again, Navia and the other two walked on both sides of the Gray River. Because of the cleaning, these roads were no longer as dirty and messy as they were at the beginning. It took countless people's hard work and sweat to clean up such a huge area of ​​the Gray River, but everyone did not have too many complaints and dissatisfaction when doing this, because many people have completely regarded the Gray River as their home, and many people have never been to the upper area in their entire lives.

People in the upper district enjoy cleanliness, beauty and sunshine, while residents of Gray River endure filth, sin and darkness. But even so, those nobles are unwilling to let them go and force them into a desperate situation.

Navia wanted to resist and capture all those damn nobles and make them kneel and repent in front of all the residents of Gray River!

But the word "resistance" is easy to say. When Navia thought of the overwhelming mechanical guards gathering into a steel torrent and rushing towards her, her face turned pale.

How to fight? I can't fight at all!

They are going against the power of an entire country!

As the distance got closer, Navia's legs became heavier.

She didn't know how to face those people who had high expectations of her, since she had made such a solemn promise to everyone before leaving.

The enormous pressure was about to crush Navia's fragile shoulders, and breathing became more and more difficult.

Myles and Silver on the side looked at Navia with great worry, but they didn't know how to comfort her.

But at this moment, there seemed to be some unusual movement coming from a distance, and the three of them immediately noticed it.

"Ms. Navia, it sounds like an explosion!"

After hearing what Myles said, Navia's face became extremely ugly.

"Let's go see if anyone is injured."

The three did not dare to delay and immediately went to the location where the sound came from to check the situation.

As they got closer, the sound of the explosion became clearer and clearer, and the three men felt increasingly depressed.

Navia kept praying in her heart, hoping that no one would be killed.

Perhaps Navia's prayers were effective, because when they arrived at the scene, they did not see any possible scenes of hell.

When Navia first saw the mechanical guard, her heart suddenly tightened, but then a figure wrapped in flames appeared in front of the mechanical guard, blocking all the bullets and shells fired by it, and then a violent explosion sounded again.

Then, in the vision of the three people, the man swung the weapon in his hand and smashed it hard at the mechanical guard's head. At the moment of contact, a metallic roar and some strange tones were heard.

Under this heavy blow, sparks burst out from the mechanical guard's head, and then it fell straight to the ground.

At this time, Navia saw that there were already two mechanical guards lying on the ground, and then she did the same thing. It didn't take much effort for the other party to knock down the third mechanical guard. This was also the last mechanical guard. After doing these things, the man stopped and spoke coldly to the two security guards who were not far ahead with terrified expressions on their faces.

"It's not time yet, are you so eager to show your loyalty to your master?"

"Get out of here now, or you won't be able to leave."

"You, you wait for us!"

Without hesitation, the two guards uttered harsh words and then fled.

As the crisis was resolved, Navia and the other two showed obvious relief on their faces, and then Navia turned her attention to the figure.

He was a middle-aged man in a black suit. When he rolled up his sleeves, his arms were muscular and full of power.

It was only then that Navia noticed that what she thought was a weapon in the other party's hand was actually a guitar!

Is Chapter 28 difficult?

"Thank you so much, Mr. Gretel."

"It's nothing, ma'am. Helping others is a good quality that every gentleman should have."

"Uncle Grete is so strong. I want to be as strong as Uncle Grete and protect my mom!"

"Haha, then you have to remember what you said today and keep exercising in the future, little guy!"

The man smiled and spoke as he walked towards the corner, then picked up the cane and top hat he had dropped from the ground.

The man patted the dust off his hat, then slowly put it on his head. Finally, he came to the woman with the child again with his cane, and at this time Navia and the other two also walked over.

"Ms. Navia!"

When she saw Navia, the woman's face first showed some surprise, then turned into joy. She greeted Navia enthusiastically and asked her children to say hello to Navia as well.

"So you are Miss Navia from the Thorn Rose Society. Nice to meet you."

Seeing the woman's actions, the man seemed to notice Navia and the others. He turned around, took off his black hat and put it on his chest like a gentleman, and saluted Navia.

Only then did Navia notice that the weapon she had seen before was indeed a silver guitar, which the other party was now carrying on his back. From the metallic color and artistic patterns on the surface of the guitar, Navia could feel that the craftsmanship of this guitar was very sophisticated.

What caught Navia's attention was that the other party had already lowered the sleeves of his black dress, and his every word and action was in line with the standards of a gentleman. He also had a faint elegance and calm temperament, which was very different from the wild and fanatical aura that Navia had felt from him before.

Such two completely different temperaments could actually appear in the same person, which aroused Navia's curiosity. At the same time, she kept recalling whether she had heard of such a person.

At this time, Myles saw Navia's confusion, so he moved closer to Navia and explained in a low voice.

"This man's name is Grete. All we know is that he was a prisoner released from Mellow Petersburg three years ago. He came to Gray River because he couldn't live in the upper district."

"He is a loner. He lives in the southeast corner of the Gray River. There are very few people who interact with him, and he doesn't have any relatives."

"I didn't seem to see the Eye of God in him before. Maybe he acquired it recently."

It turned out that he had just started the activity recently, no wonder she didn't seem to have heard any news about him before.

After hearing Miles' explanation, Navia had a basic understanding of the man, and then spoke to him.

"Hello Mr. Grete, thank you for your help."

"It's okay. I just did what I could. It's nothing compared to what the Thorn Rose Club did."

"Speaking of which, I have been able to live a relatively stable life in Gray River over the years, thanks to everyone in the Thorn Rose Society."

The man smiled, put his hat back on his head, and then spoke slowly.

After hearing the man's words, Navia and the other two immediately developed some favorable feelings towards him, and the other party's voice seemed to have a special magic that made people feel like they were bathed in spring breeze.

At this time, the man looked at the woman and her child again and spoke softly.

"I'm sorry to be late. Your home is no longer habitable."

"If you don't mind, I have a tent that I made myself. Although the material used is not very good, it is still strong and durable."

How could the woman mind this? She kept thanking the man.

Of course, the man also took away various metal materials that the woman had no use for that were scattered on the ground after being dismantled by the mechanical guards, and then he returned to the mechanical guards and began to dismantle them.

Navia was a little surprised when she saw the other party's extremely skillful movements, and couldn't help but ask.

"Mr. Grete, have you ever worked in a field related to making mechanical guards?"

"Not really. I only came across the content on dismantling mechanical guards in the last few days."

"But I see Mr. Gretel seems very skilled, as if he has done this hundreds or thousands of times."

"It's just this level, is it that difficult?"

"..."

Hearing the other party's slightly surprised tone, Navia was choking on what she was about to say. She suspected that the other party was in Versailles, but the expression of indifference on the other party's face at this moment completely made Navia dispel this speculation, but this dealt a greater blow to her spirit.

Damn it, she hated geniuses!

"Okay, come on, I'll take you to my place to get the tent."

Soon the man disassembled the important parts and intact weapons from the mechanical guard, tied them up with a strong rope that had been prepared long ago and held them in his hands. The metals collided with each other, making a series of "clink-dang-dang" sounds.

Only then did Navia understand why the man deliberately attacked the mechanical guard's head. This was to ensure the integrity of other parts.

Although the core in the mechanical guard's head is the most precious part, it is obvious that the man cannot use it, so it is destroyed directly to eliminate the possibility of the guard team recovering it.

At this time, Navia developed a strong curiosity and desire to recruit such a capable, graceful, and skilled person in craftsmanship, so she took the initiative to speak.

"Mr. Gretel, I wonder if we can go and see where you live now."

Hearing Navia's words, the man spoke with a smile on his face.

"Of course, I would be honored to have such a beautiful lady like Miss Navia visit my home."

"Please follow me."

The man walked in front to lead the way, and the others followed behind him.

Taking this opportunity, Navia asked the woman about Grete, because the woman had directly called out the other person's name before, and it was obvious that she was familiar with him.

After the woman's explanation, Navia realized that after she left Gray River, the guards who wanted to curry favor with the nobles took the opportunity to bring mechanical guards to Gray River to cause trouble.

Although some of them were driven away by the people left behind by the Thorn Rose Society, the mechanical guards were very powerful, and there were many security guards who came to cause trouble, so the lives of many people were still affected.

Although these security guards had no intention of taking their lives, they did a lot of vandalism, leaving many people homeless.

And it was at this time that Grete appeared. He was very powerful and generously provided simple tents to people who had lost their homes, and only charged a small amount of money.

Even if such a reward cannot be paid, the other party will still give the tent away for free.
