After praying in the main hall of the temple, Railin finally met Bishop Tabris under the guidance of several maids.

"My child, you seem to be in trouble!"

Tabris's words were very straightforward from the beginning.

"Yes, Master Bishop, I urgently need the teachings and guidance of the God of Knowledge..."

Just looking at the other party's attitude made Lelin's heart relax a lot. Tabris was indeed the same as he had imagined before, but he had the intention to use this incident to hit their family, but he had no plan to truly replace the Faoran family.

In this case, giving up some benefits in exchange for help from the other party is not something that is difficult to say.

Seeing the other party's performance, Bishop Tabris also nodded in his heart.

As the heir to the Faoran family, Lelynn's promise must be fulfilled even Baron Jonnas, not to mention that this is a promise to the temple, which has a god witnessed.

"It seems that Baron Jonnas has a very outstanding offspring!"

Tabris thought slowly in his heart, and looked at Lelin again: "Dear Lelin, have you heard of Viscount Deem?"

"Vissue Deem?" Lelyn's voice was a little confused. After Anthony's teaching, he certainly knew the upper nobles in the Kingdom of Dambreth, but he seemed to have never heard of the deeds of this viscount.

"Oh! Look at me! The enthronement of Viscount Dim has just been held in the previous month. It is normal that you have not heard of it, and you must have heard of his name, Marquis Louis, of his father!"

Tabris looked at Lelyn's face with some anticipation.

"Marquis Louis? That king's brother!" Leilin indeed took a sip of air conditioning. Although he knew that the matter would not be simple this time, he did not expect that he would directly have something to do with the royal nobles.

The aristocrats have never been a monolithic one. The power struggle between local and central aristocrats has never stopped for a moment. Although they may still be united when facing the divine power. However, once the pressure from the outside world decreases, mutual competition for interests becomes their instinct.

The central and local nobles of the kingdom are the two factions that have the most fierce struggles.

"Yes, that Viscount Dim is already an adult, and although he is only a second son, the Marquis Louis loves him very much and even hopes to obtain a fief for him..."

Tabris stopped talking at this point, and the rest could only be left to Lelin to think about.

"So that's the case!" Lei Lin nodded heavily.

Although the King's line is the master of the entire Kingdom of Dambreth, it is impossible to own all the land. After generations of feudalism and the rise of other nobles, there are now very few direct-government territory in the hands of the king.

At present, the territory of the entire kingdom has been almost completely divided. Even if a prince and a princess are not favored, they may not be able to obtain hereditary titles. They can only bear the title of a palace earl or a marquis, and even have a few large manors in their hands.

As the brother of this generation of kings, Marquis Louis has gained a lot of benefits. His fief is the Bodi Islands, a string of overseas islands, and the combined area is far greater than that of the Faoranling. He even has several very good deep-water ports.

To put it bluntly, even the Faoran family relied on the huge trade of the Bodi Islands to make some hard money for the other party.

But Louis also has a legitimate son. It is impossible to divide his territory. This is a very stupid act, so he must focus on other places.

Perhaps this time he set his sights on the Faoran Corps.

Although depriving a hereditary noble of the territory for no reason will definitely cause a sensation in the aristocratic circle. But if the family has extinction in advance and Marquis Louis ordered Dim to inherit the other party's family name, it would be much easier. With the influence of the marquis, the consequences of this incident can be minimized.

"Thank you for your blunt advice. In the future, the Faoran leader will open the Temple of Knowledge and will draw another territory in the eastern part of the island as a dedication to the church..."

Leilin stood up and thanked.

Although these are all the information mentioned by the other party, he felt that the possibility was very high.

One of these is that Faoran actually divided the other party's profits, although it was only a small one, but it was enough that the Marquis of Louis was unhappy.

Second, the Faoran family is just an emerging aristocratic family, and there are not so many complicated relationships, which has little influence on them.

"Is this... this is also a competition between the local factions and the central factions?"

After experiencing more power, Leilin saw a deeper place: "The Faloran family started with military merits. At first, they were the king's guards, so they could be regarded as a central faction. However, since they obtained the fief and came to the local area, the family has actually tended to local factions. My baron father did the same... But what is embarrassing is that since the Faloran island is isolated overseas and has few connections with the inland, it has not been accepted by the local aristocratic factions... So the current family is in an embarrassing situation where they do not rely on both sides..."

After thinking clearly, Lei Lin immediately realized: "No wonder, after seeing this situation, even I could not help but use the knife. The benefits were very high, but the risks were very small... Perhaps there was also the pleading of Viscount Dim..."

In fact, this is closer to Leilin's previous speculation and is somewhat different.

Although the opponent is just a viscount and his energy seems to be relatively small, the opponent has a support from the marquis behind him, and he is even the king's nephew. If he is not careful, he can easily cause chaos.

Fortunately, the other party is just a favored second son. Even Marquis Louis will not draw much power to help him, nor will it alarm the king. As long as he does not kill the other party, there will be no backlash.

After all, even if many great nobles have done this kind of task of seizing the territory of small nobles in secret, it belongs to the category of only thinking but not being expressed in words and cannot be said openly.

"Recently, there seems to be a wave of pirates roaming nearby. I hope you are more careful! The God of Knowledge will protect you..."

Tabris personally sent Lelin out of the temple, and when Lelin was about to step onto the carriage, he murmured softly in his ear.

"I understand!" A glimmer of light flashed in Leilin's eyes, he looked at Tabris deeply before getting on the carriage.

The wheels rolled, causing the body to rise and fall. Lei Lin closed his eyes in the carriage, but his thoughts kept floating.

"Cunning Bishop Tabris, are you planning to place bets on both ends..."

In fact, Leilin still wanted to get help from the temple this time. With the power of the Temple of Knowledge, if he put pressure on the Marquis himself, he would probably make the other party give up this action, but this was obviously impossible. Even Bishop Tabris did not have the power to do this for him!

And if temple warriors and priests are sent, they will be regarded as support for the Faoran family, and Tabris obviously refuses to do so.

Now looking at it, the other party just gave some information, but immediately gained a lot of things.

Even Baron Jonnas is here, he will not dare to pay any debts in the future. Even if Viscount Dim succeeds, he will not forget to come and win over the other party.

Why not do this kind of betting on both sides and guarantee profits?

Of course, there is no way to obtain help from the church, but then you must turn all your territory into God's leadership and dedicate it to the church. However, this is the practice of both sides suffering from losses and burning both jade and stones, and will be boycotted by all the nobles on the mainland and be regarded as a "traitor" among the nobles!

Lei Lin asked himself that things were not bad enough to this stage, nor did he have the courage to betray his class, so of course he would not do so.

"Pirates?"

Lei Lin's eyes were deep. Since the other party was also a master of overseas trade and had a large number of ports, he obviously also had strong maritime power.

Even some nearby pirates may be secretly controlled by the other party and send some people to harass Faran Island to create pressure, or even directly attack the manor and silence the Faran family. It is very likely that they have done it once.

"It's a bit difficult to wipe out this wave of pirates with one hundred patrol members..."

Lei Lin touched his chin. He never underestimated the opponent's strength. With a marquis supporting him, the viscount could still easily send out more than a dozen professionals.

"It is impossible for a strong man above level 15, but there may be one strong man above level 10, and there are some elite professionals above level 5... It's not easy to fight..."

Lei Lin quickly estimated the opponent's strength, which is still the most basic.

Of course, the power of the Falan family is not just the port patrol, but the real strong men and masters must be with Baron Jonnas. As for the only one who stays behind, only Mage Ounister, especially the aid was sent out by Relin himself.

"The opponent's main force will obviously only be placed on the Baron. Now the one sent here should be a small part of the force, and it is not without the power to fight!"

Lei Lin's eyes were faint.

In fact, he also considered retreating directly and hiding in a corner of the mainland as a turtle, slowly accumulating to become a master or even a legendary powerhouse!

Unfortunately, this idea was rejected by him as soon as it appeared.

Not to mention the kindness of Baroness Jonnas to him, even if he can cruelly abandon all this, he cannot give up the interests of the entire Faoran family.
