After being baptized by countless two-dimensional, movie and TV series, and entertainment news, Lin can basically tell whether a woman is a green tea bitch or a natural idiot at the first glance.
And the woman in front of him who seemed to be overly serious in her life happened to be one of the types that Lin didn't want to mess with. Fortunately, Princess Mirasalian came here today as a mascot, and the real person who was talking about it was the person next to her.
Two people.
The elder who had met many times finally revealed his identity. He is the leader of the Kingdom Sword Knights of Frank Kingdom, Mendelson Heyman. Due to many interactions with him, he also understands the tower master's intentions very well.
Personality, which words are useful and which words are in vain, made him seem quite silent today, and most of the limelight was stolen by another young man.
The nobleman from the royal family, the youngest son of Count Kohler, Myer Kohler. Looking at the way he talked incessantly, Lin knew that the rumors that the upper-class nobles in the Lost World must learn eloquence were indeed true. Fulan almost
From the beginning of the founding of the Kingdom of Ke, the deeds of the heroes of the past dynasties, to the good and bad governance of the previous kings, gave Lin a vivid history lesson.
As for the reason for the current situation, he explained it in just one sentence: the former king was stupid.
Next, he praised the excellent character of Princess Mila, boasting that it was rare in heaven and rare in the world. It seemed that not letting her wear the crown was an unforgivable sin.
Then he took out a map of the kingdom and used it to point out the momentum of the world and analyze the current situation. In the current chaotic situation, the nobles of the kingdom are roughly divided into four factions: the royal family, the weakest party, but
Many minor nobles gathered.
The neutral faction, surprisingly, is represented by that monarch. They are some nobles who close their doors and just want to defend their own territory. The people of this faction are not twisted into a rope, but they just combine those who do not belong to other factions.
Everyone falls into this category.
The Prime Minister Faction, dominated by the former king's prime ministers, was originally a faction where most of the powerful figures in the royal court gathered. These people just want to maintain the unity of the kingdom and protect their own interests. There are rumors that people from this faction intend to learn from other races.
The public deliberation system was transformed into a republic.
But to be honest, not many people paid attention to them, and the former king's gaffe was also blamed on these people, so in terms of political reputation, this is the weakest group. But in terms of strength, they are not at the mercy of others.
generation.
The Marquis Faction, or the Usurper Faction, as the name suggests, is a group of people who want to change the dynasty and put the crown on their heads. This is the strongest group of people, but there is not yet a decisive power gap.
This was the beginning of the chaos in the kingdom, when the big and small nobles attacked and united with each other, gradually forming a four-legged situation. Because the excitement gradually cooled down after the initial conflagration, coupled with the efforts of the surrounding kingdoms to win over and annex, it also
Into the chaotic Kingdom of Frank, people from the four factions began to use negotiation instead of war, and had the idea of ending the chaos as soon as possible.
So now the rules of the game have become: win over the nobles, gather troops, and after comparing hard power, it will be easier to win over other nobles, and then gather more troops. Similar to the explosion flow of real-time strategy games, whoever explodes more troops,
You can make others surrender without having to draw the other side.
"So, now join Princess Mila's command and help us rebuild this chaotic country, Lord Tripwood. Our army is still very weak. As long as you have your funding and participation, we will definitely be able to achieve the reputation of the Tower of the Great Sage."
, it will definitely shock some unscrupulous people."
Having said so much, drama requires both money and people. Lin said without hesitation: "I refuse."
"Very good, you...rejected!" It seemed to be an unexpected change. Meyerkohler's suddenly raised voice showed how surprised he was. "How could you refuse! How could you refuse!"
Lin Xin explained calmly: "If I were an ordinary magician, swearing allegiance, or being employed by Her Royal Highness, then it would be reasonable to do those things. But as the owner of a magic tower, I do not interfere between nobles.
Affairs are things written in black and white in the agreement. I cannot violate the agreement."
"What are you talking about! You allowed the Renaissance Army to establish its base in your territory. Didn't you show your attitude? Now you have to stay out of it. Do you think it's possible?"
"If the two things are related to each other, then I can only regretfully ask everyone in the Renaissance Army to leave my territory."
"You!" "Master Kohler!" Knight Commander Mendelson Heyman said to stop the angry young nobleman who was on the verge of breaking out, and said: "Master, according to the convention, Lord Tripwood cannot get involved in our affairs.
Please also exercise restraint."
The convention is an agreement made by the envoys of the five major empires in the Mysterious World and the Magician Association. It is not very binding and basically is a treaty that does not exist if no one mentions it. If someone mentions it, it must be abided by.
Of course, if someone violates the convention and someone else wants to cause trouble, they will act according to the rules. To put it bluntly, it is an excuse and a fig leaf for the powerful and senior officials.
The so-called non-intervention in affairs between nobles includes wars between countries. In addition to dealing with the invasion of dark creatures, genocide-style extermination wars, or the attack of abyssal species such as demons and devils, the magic tower
The lord has the power to stay out of the wars between nobles.
Take the Tower of the Great Sage as an example. The magic tower that is close to the territory of Viscount Lorenz. If it joins his political enemies or hostile nobles with territorial disputes, it will rely on the location of the magic tower to cause trouble for Viscount Lorenz all day long.
, that’s not to say that the harassed nobles were depressed to death. That’s why there was a ‘non-intervention’ pact.
This is something that no one mentions, so it is treated as unknown. But since the tower master in front of him has said it, any more words after that are just a waste of words, and may even anger the tower master and lose the existing foundation.
Mendelson Heimann apologized and took the angry young man away.
Her Royal Highness the Princess followed silently. Apart from introducing herself, she did not say a word from beginning to end. She just stared at the tower owner calmly and without any disrespect. No emotion could be seen.
Looking at the people leaving indifferently, Lin's figure gradually faded and disappeared.
Returning to the meeting place of the Renaissance Army, some radical young people gathered together to ask the tower master of the Tower of the Great Sage about his intentions. Myerkoler tried his best to complain and slander, arousing everyone's anger.
There was a feeling of injustice. There were even slogans about attacking the tower and seizing money.
The Tower of the Great Sage is very rich, and it has actually been publicized on the forum for quite some time. After all, the Chamber of Commerce’s horse and cart teams that send supplies are not necessarily the same group of people every time.
After these people go back, they will inevitably brag to their relatives and friends about how many boxes they saw and the large amount of supplies that were sent into the tower. Then the matter will be exposed on the forum. The more rumors there are, the more bizarre they will be, and eventually a big disaster will happen.
The image of the Tower of Sage as a wealthy and powerful country has become deeply ingrained, not to mention that the reality is not far from it. As a result, there are more and more people who covet it, including the Renaissance Army who lives here.
People of the older generation feel uncomfortable with the unscrupulous discussions of young people, but they can't explain why they feel uneasy. Although the Tower of the Great Sage has massacred a village and completely annihilated a team of inspectors.
, but in the eyes of most people, this is still an antique tower controlled by a rookie magician, and it is not that strong.
"So, Your Highness Princess," after the discussion reached the final decision, Myerkoll excitedly said to the loyal people, "--as long as we get your permission, we can capture the Great Sage in a raid.
Tower."
Although she was not wearing luxurious clothes, Mirassarian still had that charming temperament. After the negotiation failed, she returned to the assembly hall and just drank tea quietly and listened to everyone's thoughts and discussions. She was greeted by a group of excited eyes.
When the shiny young man asked, she just said lightly: "I don't agree with your request."
"Why, Your Highness Princess? Our spies have entered the tower several times before and have a complete grasp of the layout and layout inside. There will definitely be no accidents. The money in that tower is enough for us to organize a team
A huge army. This will also be more secure for your coronation."
"The tower master took me and my initial followers in before, without any restrictions and allowed us to develop. I will never forget this kindness. I will not attack him in turn because of the problem of funds. In short, this matter is like this
Decision. Anyone who makes an independent decision to attack the Magic Tower will be declared to the outside world as not being a supporter of me, and I will definitely expel the person from my side."
Seeing the princess' decisive words, Mendelson Heyman immediately said: "Gentlemen, since this is the princess's wish, we and other followers should naturally respect and obey it. Let's discuss this matter here, we still need to discuss the faction.
Who will persuade other noble lords?"
The most experienced subordinate, while characterizing the matter, also shifted everyone's attention to another important matter. Mirassarian took a long breath of heart, but there were still words that she could not say just now.
.
She had felt a very powerful dark creature enter the tower before, and it was powerful enough to kill the current revival army several times without any injuries. But such a powerful dark creature, most of its aura disappeared in an instant. She
I once speculated that those dark creatures had reached the intention of cooperating with the tower owner and lurked, or they died in the magic tower again...
Entering the Tower of the Great Sage today and negotiating with the tower owner, Mirassarian did not feel the slightest aura of darkness. This means that the magic tower is sophisticated enough to hide the aura of dark creatures lurking; or it is
Really killed those dark creatures.
No matter what the answer was, she didn't want to attack that tower and become the enemy of the tower owner.
