Since he had already deduced that the Crab Claw Family's target was him, Kroeber was no longer worried about Christina's personal safety.
If it was really done by some blind bandits, they would not care who Christina's sister was. They would kill her and do whatever they wanted to her.
But if it was done by the Crab Claw family, then he would still follow the most basic unspoken rules of the aristocracy - he would not insult, beat, or abuse members of the aristocracy.
Although Christina is no longer a member of the nobility legally, she is Kroeber's biological sister, so she is also considered a member of the noble class.
If the Crab Claw Family wants to use her to threaten her, they must ensure her personal safety.
In other words, the Crab Claw Family has now taken full responsibility for protecting Christina, replacing those soldiers.
Moreover, the Crab Claw Family did not write to him, which meant that they wanted Krober to come to them themselves so that they could take the initiative in the negotiations.
"They really believe that I can deduce it. Aren't they afraid that I'm a fool?"
Krober touched his chin and decided to go to Red Crab Island before taking up the position of Prime Minister of the Court and "borrow" some gold coins from them.
The current number of soldiers on Amethyst Island and Black Feather Island is sufficient to maintain public order and conduct daily patrols, but it is probably far from enough to form an expedition team.
So this time, Krober did not plan to bring soldiers to Crab Claw Island. He just took Yan and old man Foster. The three of them were enough.
Krober had already learned most of the information about Red Crab Island when he was cleaning out the Crab Claw Family spies on Black Feather Island.
The Crab Claw Family is a viscount family. The strongest member of the family is Lucas Crab Claw, a Knight of the Earth. In addition, the family has three great knights and more than ten official knights.
However, the Crab Claw Family has always been low-key, and no one has ever seen Viscount Lucas take action, so Krober does not know Lucas's fighting ability.
But this does not affect Krober's confidence in his own strength. He believes that in the Earth Knight stage, he can definitely be called the strongest.
With four characteristics and more than seven hundred base stations, Krober's combat power has reached an extremely terrifying level.
Krober plans to go to Red Crab Island to verify his own combat effectiveness.
The fact that the Crab Claw Family can protect such a large industry as Red Crab Island shows that its own strength is definitely not weak.
Then it would be most appropriate to use them as objects to test their combat capabilities.
"Someone come."
Krober's voice echoed in the tent.
"My lord, what are your orders?"
The person who pushed open the door curtain and came in was Sam, one of the two knight squires that Krober had originally accepted in Flower Crown City.
When Krober was sixteen, he was already a mid-level apprentice knight. Now, more than a year has passed, and he is still the same, without any improvement.
"Sam, go call Yan for me and tell him to accompany me on a trip. Ask him to finish his work and come back to see me."
A serious expression appeared on Sam's slightly plump face.
"I will obey your orders, my lord."
After saying that, Sam quickly turned around and left the tent, heading towards the gathering place of the tribesmen to look for Yan.
Looking at Sam's receding back, Krober frowned.
For some reason, he always felt that Sam seemed to have become much more decadent.
Although it cannot be seen from the surface, Sam's attitude towards training seems to have changed from daily training.
Although Sam was just a servant, he was an old man who had accompanied Krober in building his business from scratch, so Krober still trusted him.
If Sam's problem can be solved, with his qualifications and the resources provided by Krober, the probability of Sam becoming an official knight is relatively high.
It's no wonder that Krober is anxious. With his current status and strength, he doesn't even have a team of knights, which makes it inconvenient for him to do anything.
The Knight Squad, as the name suggests, is a team composed entirely of official knights.
There are also teams composed of great knights, and even teams composed of earth knights, but the names are different.
A team composed of formal knights is called a knight squad, a team composed of great knights is called a knight league, and a team composed of earth knights is called a knight team, but they prefer to be called the Knight Order.
For example, when Grand Duke Veronica went on an expedition, she led a knight order of several hundred people, and the ordinary members were all at the level of Earth Knights.
Sky Knights and Fantasy Beast Knights serve as officers, while Grand Duke Veronica herself serves as the commander.
Although their number is small, their fighting power is extremely strong. If no one can restrict this team, they can easily destroy a principality.
Not long after, Yan, who was summoned by Krober, came outside the tent.
He first glanced at Griffin who was sleeping at the door, sighed that this griffin cub was growing so fast, then walked around and entered Krober's tent.
"My Lord, Sam said you have a task for me to complete."
After this period of time, Yan has completely mastered the common language and is able to handle some documents that are not difficult to handle, which has relieved a lot of pressure for Haier.
Krober glanced indifferently at the scar on Yan Zuo's face, which was left by his sword, and said:
"There is indeed a mission. Go back and pack your luggage. We will gather at the port early tomorrow morning and head to Black Feather Island."
After hearing this, Yan bowed without hesitation.
"Yes, my lord!"
“Okay, go get busy, and when you come back, I’ll hold a promotion meeting.
Some of your people have already qualified to become subjects. I will personally acknowledge their status as subjects and promise to protect their personal safety."
After helping Krober conquer Amethyst Island, Yan worked diligently and conscientiously. Krober thought it was time to give him some encouragement.
The tribesmen of the Sea People are Yan's biggest pain point and weakness. As long as Krober can control them, it is equivalent to holding Yan firmly in his hands.
"Yes! Thank you for your kindness, sir!"
As expected, after hearing the news, Yan became much more excited.
However, he was still able to control his inner joy and maintain a certain level of rationality. After calming down, he bowed to Krober and left the tent.
After arranging tomorrow's itinerary, Kroeber took out a document from the thick pile on the table and began to annotate it.
As the lord, although most of the matters were handled by Hyer, some major matters still required Krober to personally review and sign for approval.
For example, this document is Samuel's proposal on the establishment and conception of an intelligence agency.
The entire report was well written, clearly organized, and listed the advantages and disadvantages in detail. Kroeber was very satisfied.
But when he saw the final funding offer, Kroeber was very dissatisfied.
