At that time, the captain of the guards, Nair, was deep in thought.
Moreover, regarding Joelson’s second question, the captain of the guards, Nair, also had a preliminary judgment in his heart.
That’s right, the captain of the guards estimated that the person that Joelson wanted to capture was probably that darn Elizabeth family!
The reason was very simple! That was, the Elizabeth family was a very blind enforcer!
Damnit, the Elizabeth family had a rather good political relationship with him!
If he wanted to help Joelson, it would be tantamount to completely falling out with his financial backer, the Elizabeth family!
He might even have to fight to the death!
With his strength as a guard captain, he might not be able to defeat the terrifying Elizabeth family. After all, they were the number one family in the underground city. Not to mention their large businesses. The strength of a few elders was even more terrifying!
Their combat strength was not something a deity-domain-level guard captain like himself could withstand!
Guard Captain Nair sank into deep thought.
“How is it? Are you willing to help me with this?”
Joelson said calmly with his hands behind his back.
“Hu…”
Guard Captain Nair exhaled deeply.
At this moment, his heart was currently engaged in an intense battle of thoughts!
“Allow me to ask, what is the name of the faction that needs to be captured?”
The captain of the guards asked with a fluke in his heart.
“You know.”
Without turning his head, Joelson answered directly.
“The Elizabeth family, the most powerful family in your underground city. How about it? Are you willing to help me with this?”
Hearing Joelson’s question, the captain of the guards fell into deep thought.
This was a very important question.
Not only was it related to whether the captain of the guards was willing to help Joelson, it was also related to whether or not he would completely fall out with the Elizabeth family.
If he declared war on the Elizabeth family, it would mean one thing.
The captain of the guards, Nair, not only wanted to say no to the old king Reynolds and his son, he also wanted to oppose the current heir of the royal family. The deeper point was to declare war on the Elizabeth family, this meant that he wanted to declare war on all the forces during the old king’s era!
Those forces that were deeply rooted and attached to the old king, as long as they did not conform to Joelson’s intentions, then the captain of the guards, Nair, would declare war on them directly!
Moreover, if that was the case, he would not have any leeway to jump left and right!
The captain of the guards, Nair, swallowed a deep mouthful of saliva.
The collapse of the royal family was something that no one who understood the situation would disapprove of.
Because of the old kings, Leighton and Reynolds, their strength had been completely crushed by this outsider.
Furthermore, at the final moment, this king, the Iron-Blooded Reynolds, actually attempted to bring the entire underground city to destruction. Such a move had already caused the hearts of his people to be completely lost.
Furthermore, the current king, Leighton, had already been scared silly by this huge mental pressure. With such a result, there probably wouldn’t be any more vassals.
Therefore, opposing the current king was a publicly acknowledged fact.
There was no problem with this point. If there was a problem, then there must be something wrong with that person’s brain.
However, opposing all the other nobles, this point was extremely problematic!
This would mean that his guard captain, Nair, would stand firmly on the side of Joelson!
Behind these interests were complicated relationships, which made the Guard Captain Nair hesitate.
Should this be the case?
Or should it be worth it?
What if Joelson did not plan to stay here for long?
The nobles were not like a king. They hid behind the scenes and had their own ideas. Unless everyone was massacred, it would be quite difficult to distinguish the positions of everyone for a while.
Moreover, many people’s positions were diverse.
They were like weeds on the wall, swaying with the wind at any time.
Captain Nair began to think carefully.
“How is it?”
Seeing that the other party was deep in thought, Joelson asked with a smile.
Joelson naturally knew what the other party was thinking.
His brain was much smarter than Captain Nair’s. He was very clear about what Nair was worried about.
It was because of this that Joelson wanted to ask Captain Nair to choose which side he was on.
It was understandable to try to build a relationship in a crisis.
As long as he was sure that the other party would not jump around repeatedly, then he could be accepted to swear fealty.
In fact, the Elizabeth family, to Joelson, could destroy the entire Elizabeth family with a flick of his finger.
But…
It was too troublesome.
It was just like an adult who, because of the nonsense of a few children, had to charge into a kindergarten to teach the entire kindergarten a lesson.
It was extremely troublesome and boring.
It was even enough to make this adult lower his status.
Joelson felt that as a peak demigod, it would be extremely boring for him to fight against a few clans whose domain-level existences were all rare toys.
Thus, Joelson didn’t personally take action to destroy the Elizabeth family.
If the captain of the guards, Nair, was willing to stand firmly on his side, it would be the best thing for him to do it for him.
This way, he wouldn’t have to do such dirty and tiring work.
Of course, if the other party didn’t agree, then there wouldn’t be any problems at all.
Although he felt that it was boring, if he really wanted to do it, then it was not impossible.
Joelson was not some old man who stuck to the rules.
He would not stop doing something just because of his face.
Joelson slowly turned around, and his gaze fell on the captain of the guards, Nair.
“Phew…”
The captain of the guards, Nair, took a deep breath and the hesitation in his eyes gradually became unusually firm.
“I’m willing to serve you, Lord Joelson!”
As the captain of the guards said this, he knelt down on one knee and offered his loyalty to Joelson.
For some reason, the friendliness in Joelson made him do something irrational.
Was this really right?
Perhaps he would never be able to recover from this, but the inexplicable friendliness in Joelson made him choose loyalty when he was about to reject.
This feeling was very strange and Captain Nair was very puzzled. He could not even describe this feeling with words but, when he thought of it, he had already announced his decision!
I hope this foreigner can lead the underground city to glory!
Captain Nair, who was kneeling on the ground, thought of this.
