In the capital of the Principality, Tania City, in a corner of the parliament hall, a fat man was burying himself in a mountain of documents and was busy. Perhaps due to excessive work pressure, the fat man's face was covered with big smiles.
There were large drops of sweat, and the front collar of the special official uniform of the Principality was soaked with sweat. However, the fat man himself seemed not to notice it, and still concentrated on dealing with what was before him, as if he would never deal with it.
After finishing the work, the white pages flew quickly in his hands, and then fell into a basket woven with wisteria next to him. Although the whole work process seemed simple and embarrassing, people were constantly handed over from around.
Judging from the expressions on the faces of the subordinates who came up, as well as the looks of the officials who occasionally passed by, they were still in awe of this busy fat man.
Because he is the current intelligence director of the Principality of Elnifea, Lux Young.
"This is today's information, sir."
"Didn't you do it several times?"
The fat man buried behind the mountain of documents took a new pile of documents handed over by a staff member without raising his head, but his words were not idle: "Don't call me sir, call me sir."
"Ah...yes, yes, Mr. Yang."
"How are you guys reacting today?"
"Everything is business as usual. Members of Parliament are still staying at home, and there is no contact with each other..." The man replied: "Your Excellency Venustel also took special care of me and asked me to say hello to you."
"Just asking."
The fat man picked up a pen from his left hand and began to write on the document in his hand: "When our Speaker promulgated the new bill, Fordson turned around and smashed his most precious magic vase.
, do you think I don’t know? Now someone else comes to say hello to me? If they feel better, the sun will shine out in the west!"
"But... there seems to be no movement among the noble faction members these days?"
"If there is no movement, then there is movement." Fatty replied in a low voice: "Pamir, as well as many people from other factions, are waiting for their attitude and reply. Even public criticism and revenge are acceptable."
"And now this silence..."
The movement of his hand stopped for a moment, and then started to move quickly again: "I hope you don't cause me any trouble..."
With the flexible movement of the stubby fingers, the pen tip turned to the last corner on the paper, and then left an ugly and unreadable signature in a swipe, and then was grabbed by the fat man: "These days when the old man is not around,
It’s a shame for us people... Go and show it to Starrag and let him take a good look..."
The inexplicable tone made the people standing next to him shudder involuntarily, because every time this murderous fat man said this, it meant that someone who was going to be unlucky was about to appear. He bowed his head in response.
He made a sound, then took the paper that had been put aside long ago, and hurriedly left the place with the fat man's inexplicable smile. The latter's movements did not stop until the surrounding movement became silent again.
At that moment, he put down the pen in his hand, picked up a rag on the corner of the table, and wiped his forehead.
"Huh...when will this damn weather get cooler..."
The fat man tugged on his collar, as if to give himself some heat, and his eyes turned around in every corner of the parliament hall before falling on his table: "Well..."
"Then let's take a look at today's news first."
Picking up the pile of things left by the previous person, the fat man fanned himself with palm-leaf fan-like hands while looking through it casually: "Just think of it as a way to relax... Well, Vincent is there again
Are you planning to propose that motion? The Miki family is really not stopping..."
"Tasker of the city defense army is going to have another banquet... Let's have it, let's discuss it and come to a conclusion quickly. How uncomfortable will it be if it keeps dragging on like this... huh?"
"This is the news from the people of the Mages Council, the appraisal... the conclusion? Who went to find those magicians to do things again... Ah, by the way, that thing Dusk sent a few days ago... Hey, old guy,
Isn’t it because there are no Imperial people to cause trouble for you, and you feel uncomfortable all over..."
"Vesell's tavern ... stopped business? Well, you mice, you like to engage in these three roads every day, what is this old house this time? No, a few days ago, Cornelli’s
The store seems to have been closed for a while. If you two didn’t have an affair, no one would believe it..."
"Another adventurer visited the Fordson family, and it was a new face. Well... so idle? Is their so-called game over?"
His body was spread out on the special large chair, with a smile on the corner of the fat man's mouth, as if he was reading newspapers and gossip, flipping through these news that ordinary people had no access to, and at the same time talking to himself, as if in front of his eyes
These astonishing inside stories had nothing to do with him. But at the moment when he turned to this place, his relaxed expression slowly disappeared, and along with it, his fat body gradually stood upright. His eyes were like
While I was still reading the next content, the consciousness in my mind began to swim, spin, and then sink to the depths like the sea involuntarily, and finally stopped at a certain place like an instinctive reaction.
The feeling of that place was familiar to him - it was a feeling of fear that he had not felt for many years.
Sitting upright suddenly, the fat man put the page in his hand back in front of him, then turned back a page, looking for something he had just read before, and his pupils gradually shrank.
"Guard! Guard...that's not right."
After shouting something subconsciously, the fat man slapped the table and stood up, but the next moment he realized where exactly this place was: "Pamir... Where is the Speaker? Is the Speaker here?"
"In the……"
"I want to see him, now, immediately, immediately!%#a%..."
The pages in his hand were clenched into a bunch, and the fat man strode to the back of the hall, leaving behind stunned expressions on everyone present and a series of curses that gradually grew distant from him.
***************************
"Those principality people...are they still the same?"
"Yes, Captain."
At noon, the grassland to the west of Fars Fortress is as usual, constantly undulating in the summer wind caused by the heat of the sun. The green waves extend to the surroundings time and time again on the grass, repeatedly lifting and falling.
At the same time as the process, the refreshing sound of grass waves is also made, showing the natural posture and charm to the people around. However, if the players who can get rid of the two forces that are constantly fighting on the grassland, and the players who stop at this time
With the Imperial Cavalry stationed in the middle, such beautiful scenery may be more easily visible to passers-by, allowing this war-torn place to regain its original glory.
Moreover... today's imperial cavalry seems to be staying longer than before.
"The rats of Fars, the cowards of the principality! Do you dare to come out and fight us!"
"Those guys who have been hiding in the fortress all day, come out if you can!"
"In the name of the empire, I have never seen such brave soldiers as you! Oh, no...can you still call them soldiers?"
"We are standing here. If you want to avenge your shame or take revenge, feel free to do so!"
These imperial men on horseback stood far away in the grass far away from the fortress. The constant shouting and cursing had lasted for nearly three hours. Not only the adventurers passing by, but also those staying on the battlefield.
The players who were fighting back and forth also began to cast doubtful eyes on the cavalry team that was reluctant to leave, secretly speculating on its meaning. At a certain moment, a cavalryman rode close to the man who looked like the captain, and
Amidst the shouting and cursing, he asked in a low voice: "Then what should we do? Keep waiting?"
"Of course, even if we can't wait, our follow-up troops will arrive."
The captain showed a smile: "That's it, we can't leave now, no matter what... we have to give it a try."
"With all due respect...even if a few more teams come, if there is no signal ahead...it will probably be in vain."
"It doesn't matter, I've already earned it today."
Looking in the direction of a certain base in the south, a strange smile appeared on the captain's face: "Not to mention..."
"I heard that there will be adventurers among the reinforcements."
"Ah? How..."
"I don't know the specific situation, but...those guys will always find a way." The captain shook his reins, and then turned back while gradually moving forward: "Those adventurers will always have a lot of bad guys.
, isn’t it?”
Amidst the rhythmic sound of horse hooves, the captain came to the front of the lined up team, first made a move to lower his voice, and then in the gradually quiet atmosphere, he shouted at the top of his lungs: "Beasts of the principality!
Listen to me! Open the door and surrender quickly, otherwise..."
He laughed: "We're going in by ourselves!"
*********************************
"Hey, Lord Adjutant, how could you do this? Hey, listen to me, hey...I'll strangle you!"
At the entrance of the spiral staircase on one side of the fortress, the evil young man from Jiecheng and the African miner looked at each other, wondering what happened diagonally above them in the past few minutes - in that direction, a dancing man was coming from
He walked down the spiral staircase, but judging from the previous conversation, this person's behavior at this time should not be due to happiness.
"I'm so pissed off!" Ladder's frantic figure immediately came to them: "If I take over your mission from now on, I will be a#%a#..."
"Captain, let's calm down first, let's calm down first..." The African miner sighed, and then stepped forward and began to comfort him: "Isn't it just a few bad words? You can do that to the gatekeeper at the door.
Come to think of it, why did you just..."
"Bullshit!"
The ladder waved away the hand beside him: "You know what, do you know what that idiot was like just now? We only have two stones now!"
"Ah? What?" Then the faces of the other two people also darkened.
"Although we didn't put in much effort this time, and there are no casualties to report, we don't look at merit but also hard work, and we don't look at hard work but also fatigue, right? What's the result? That guy actually said something shy, 'Thank you for your hard work,' and then
Not even the normal rewards are given!”
Perhaps because he was too angry, Brother Ax threw his big ax to the ground, and then continued to jump on his feet: "I want to talk about morality with him. What kind of morality does he have with me? Can I have breast augmentation? I
He wants to report to Dusk, he and I are going to the command room now, and asked me if I want to go with him, I will go, fuck him! I have never seen such an arrogant person..."
"He...is planning to cheat our rewards like this?" the African miner asked with a face: "Blacker than me?"
"At the end of the day, I thought I had to pay my salary, so I begged him to give us two pieces of equipment for the sake of our family, and then...guess what? He took out two second-level keys...
…”
With a bang, the ladder kicked his ax far away: "Hit the beggar!"
"I didn't expect... that there would really be an NPC that would do such a thing."
In the gloomy expression of the evil young man in Jie City, the African miner said in a low voice: "These people from the principality, and this fortress... don't you want to defend it any longer?"
"It's really not working anymore, let's change places." The evil young man from Jiecheng with a bandage on his arm also said: "Brother, wherever you go, we will follow you..."
"I don't know if they want to ****, but the key question now is...do I want to do it?" Looking at the clear sky above the fortress wall, Ladder suddenly showed a sad face: "The grasshopper is okay.
After all, they are brothers, and he is not a poor person, but as for Brother Mo..."
"I'm still wearing novice uniforms now, so I'm really embarrassed to owe you."
"As for Brother Mo, the eldest brother shouldn't have to worry." Evil Young Master said, "He shouldn't be a fussy person, and he's... also busy right now."
"By the way, where are the others?"
"Weren't you stopped at the door by people from Qicai Lingguang's team?" the African miner said: "It seems that he has some grudge and wants to resolve it on the spot... I guess he is still there now."
"Hey, I saw that too." Finally suppressing the anger in his heart, Ladder chuckled: "Let's take a walk, it's not too late now, right? Let's go watch the fun..."
He urged everyone, and at the same time walked quickly towards the ax he had left not far away, intending to pick it back up. However, just as he was about to come forward, two figures suddenly appeared in the shadows not far away.
his attention.
"That guy..."
Holding his own ax handle, Ladder slowly straightened up and said through gritted teeth: "Just wait for me..."
boom!
A huge shock appeared in the fortress, and the ripples made of gas formed a ring in the air, passing through the sight of the ladder at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then spreading to the distant surroundings. He raised his head in astonishment and looked at
After the light and illusion flashed, the fortress shrouded in thick smoke suddenly covered its head - with the sound of whistling, large pieces of gravel cut through the sky, and then fell towards the surrounding area including the ladder.
Come.
A huge explosion, everything is now displayed in front of everyone. (To be continued.)
