The city of Westmarch is not peaceful at this time. The main reason is actually because the King of Westmarch, Cornelius, passed away a few days ago.
Yes, the time of Cornelius's death was almost the same as the time when the World Stone exploded. Linton didn't know what happened to this guy. The power of Nephalem in his body was awakened, but he died violently because of the awakened power? But
The problem is that of course there must be a lot of people who died, right? Excluding the survivor bias, it can only be regarded as a coincidence.
The sudden death of Cornelius has caused some chaos in the current political situation in the Kingdom of Westmarch. Originally, Cornelius's family had some irregularities in winning the country, and he could not have been the king. He came to the throne mainly because he came from Sakaran
With the support of the priests of the Mu sect, it was now revealed that all the high-ranking members of the Zakarum Council on Trevank's side had become dogs for the devil. The king who was promoted to the throne by the priests suddenly became a little embarrassed.
While Cornelius was still there, the eastern part of the Kingdom of Westmarch was already preparing for a rebellion. Before the matter was resolved, Cornelius was gone, and this guy didn’t even have a child. Seeing this situation,
It's just the opposite on the east side.
Due to the emergence of rebels, there was an urgent need for a king to ascend the throne, so the unprepared Gasdian IV ascended the throne. He was the younger brother of Cornelius, and he did not expect that the throne would be passed to him. He was
A confused look on his face.
Why are there so many introductions? Because King Gastian IV, who has just ascended the throne, is now in front of Linton.
I have to say that Gasdien IV is indeed quite pitiful. The current situation inside and outside the court is in chaos. Some people inside the court are questioning his throne, and there are rebels from all walks of life outside. Under such circumstances of internal and external troubles, the people here
The first king's order after taking office was to hold an exposition.
Yes, unfortunately, the king who had just ascended the throne for a few days was targeted by Linton. In order to expand the influence of the expo, Linton's first thought was naturally to seek cooperation with the king. As for things like rebellion,
Linton had no idea and didn't bother to care about what the rebels were doing.
As for why the king cooperated, Linton didn't know. Anyway, Linton handed over the communication work directly to Aizen. He just said, "Go to the king to discuss cooperation," and then the king's people came.
In short, Aizen's negotiations were very successful. King Gastian IV put down all the important things at hand and prepared to mobilize the whole country to open a magic props expo. As soon as the news was released, the expo had not yet opened, and it had already shocked the entire continent. After all,
No one expected that at such a moment when the country was in danger of survival, the king would go to hold an exposition, which was simply unheard of.
Linton didn't expect the effect to be so good. At first, he was thinking about what to do if Malsayer didn't receive the message. After all, there were no TV advertisements or Internet advertisements here. Now he suddenly didn't have to worry, because
The behavior of Gasdian IV has been made into a joke and spread throughout the continent. Thanks to the commercial advantages of Westmarch City, the businessmen cooperated very well and spread the joke everywhere through radiation.
Of course, there are still problems, because this joke mainly talks about the problem of Gasdien IV. It seems that not many people are paying attention to the situation of this expo, although Linton has asked Gasdien IV to emphasize the darkness more. About the Soul Stone, but it seems that not many people know that the Dark Soul Stone will be displayed at the expo, let alone what this thing is for.
Yes, Linton has nothing to hide about the role and efficacy of the Dark Soul Stone. But even those who have heard about it, most people don't take it seriously at all. What about sealing angels and demons? What is it? From the mortal worldview, we have never seen any angels at all. In terms of demons, the mutated monster at the door is considered a big devil in their eyes. Who knows what Diavolo is?
Of course, it doesn't matter whether they believe it or not. Linton only catches certain fish here. In short, amidst the chaos, the expo here was held as scheduled. Of course, the expo here means as soon as possible. Anyway, it will start as soon as the arrangements are completed.
The location of the expo is in the center of Westmarch City, which is the front hall at the main entrance of the palace. Going up the steps inside is the palace. To be precise, this place is also part of the palace. Since the expo is open to anyone, you Not to mention what is on display inside, most people have never had the opportunity to enter the palace, let alone see the jokes up close. So as soon as the exhibition started, there was an endless stream of people who wanted to see the exhibition. , huge crowds of people.
Linton also said that he would never miss any opportunity for spies to sneak in. The more people there, the better. As long as there is one spy inside who can bring news to Malthael, Linton's goal will be achieved.
Linton doesn't know what's going on with Malthael's men. According to the game, they are all little blue men who have been drained of their souls and mutated into skeletons. But they haven't started to cause trouble yet, and they probably haven't started to suck souls either. Well, maybe there is a disguise.
There are also traitors on the human side who will send him news. Anyway, there are always people with bad minds who seek refuge with others without looking at the actual situation. Why would you go and seek refuge with such a wave of SS that inspires the destruction of all mankind? , kill yourself? But there are people who will do that. Since ancient times, no matter where the world is, there is no shortage of Shenjing Bing. Otherwise, where do you think the Japanese devils came from?
The location was provided by King Gasdian IV. The location is quite good, but the place is a bit too big. Originally, I planned to only display the Dark Soul Stone, but it always felt a little lonely when it was placed there alone. Therefore, Linton also slightly added some other exhibits based on the situation.
The so-called "depending on the situation" means to put whatever you see on it for display. For example, the Horadrim cube I got before was useless and had no points, so I put it up for display to occupy a place. There are also many Zordon Kule. And the things collected by Deckard Cain can be used everywhere.
Of course, if you want to do it, do it seriously. Linton is really doing it according to the way of the expo. There are even welcome guests and commentators who specialize in introducing the exhibits. Of course, these ladies are provided by King Gasdien IV.
Yes, the royal family pays for royal outings and royal outings. In order to take care of the poor spies that may be there, they don’t even charge tickets. Although the gatekeepers are provided by the royal family, they do not do any security checks and will never stop them.
People who behave strangely are afraid that these spies will really catch them.
People who came to see the exhibition said that it was an eye-opener. They were indeed things they had never seen before. However, most people still asked the same question, that is... are these things real?
"All the things we have here are genuine." The commentator here kept answering these people's questions, "We can even verify everything on the spot."
"Really? I really want to verify this." The person who spoke was a man with a somewhat frivolous tone. It sounded like he was looking for trouble. Many people around him frowned when they saw this man's appearance.
Stay away, because this guy is still a "well-known person" in Westmarch City.
The man's name is Cheles. To put it simply, this man is a tyrant in the city of Westmarch. His family has some assets inherited from his ancestors. He himself is a gangster. He doesn't have a serious job at his age. He spends all day wandering around the city.
Akira, and then there are all kinds of troubles.
Because they have some money and some power, poor people simply cannot afford to offend such a guy. If it were in ancient China, this guy might have been given a nickname like "Big Chong". Anyway, everyone looked at him in fear and avoided him.
And not as good as that.
Since his daily job is to have fun, Cheles heard about an expo and the like, so of course he came over to take a look, and he didn’t even charge for admission. But of course he didn’t know anything about magic, and seeing the strange things placed there
Who knows what this thing is used for? It’s boring just to look at it.
Hearing the answer from the commentator next to him, he happened to come up to him. As soon as he came up, the person who had just asked the question was scared away by him. Cheles didn't care and walked directly to the commentator: "Long
It’s very cute. Which district do you live in?”
"Royal Palace." The lady commentator here is not cowardly at all. She doesn't know Cheles at all. No matter how aggressive the opponent is, he can only do it in the slums, and all the greeters and commentators here are servants of the palace.
, what else can you do to them?
Sure enough, Cheles couldn't keep up with the conversation. I wanted to tease him at first, but now I don't know what to do. But I can't lose face, and I can't tease people, so I'll continue to question, or Cheles has started to make trouble now.
.
"You said these are all real? Magic props?" Cheles pointed around, "Can you still demonstrate them?"
"Yes, you can choose whatever you want." The explanation lady said simply.
"What's going on with that woman?" Cheles looked around and suddenly pointed at a woman surrounded not far away and said.
"Oh, she is also one of the exhibits." said the explanation lady.
"Huh? She's a display piece?" Cheles became interested, "What's so special about that?"
"Even though she looks like a human being, her true identity is actually one of the seven demon kings of hell, Andariel, the Queen of Pain." The commentator Xiaojie explained according to the previous temporary training.
"Huh? What kind of Demon King?" With Cheles' knowledge, he naturally didn't recognize it at all. "What about the Queen of Pain? What the hell? Okay, interesting, she is the only one. I'll see how this can be verified."
"Okay." The explanation lady nodded directly, "If you are brave, you can go up there by yourself. The Queen of Pain can seduce a guy like you with just a few whispers. See if you can mutate yourself. Do you dare?"
"Hey, this is interesting. Come on, let me try it!" Cheles said directly without fear at all.
