It's very strange, the pleasure of deceiving two siblings who grew up in a deep palace is like a pyramid scheme.
Even McDonald himself wasn't necessarily that strong, he just suppressed the two siblings to death.
If this was not a palace and Kalia was not a princess, McDonald felt that if he went up to the wall and banged it, his chances of success would be quite high.
It's a pity that after the end of World War II in the Dark Portal, Princess shares were sold to sky-high prices by Terenas, the sole major shareholder and the mastermind behind the scenes. McDonald wanted to throw out gold coins crazily in the face of the Princess to achieve the ultimate goal of ruining the fortune, but he always
A little unhappy!
Why?
When you can clearly remember the time when Bitcoin started plummeting at 20,000 US dollars a piece, why do you need to chase the high when it was 19,000 US dollars?
This is not called throwing money away, this is called stupidity.
Regardless of whether this kind of malicious prodigality can be hidden from the system, McDonald estimated that Terenas would soon be unhappy with Alsace's guidance and would not allow him to freely enter the palace.
If you can't even get in, let alone giving gifts.
At this moment when time seemed to have stood still, McDonald suddenly looked back.
What he imagined in his mind was a wall. On one side of the wall was the decaying Lordaeron, and on the other side was the Kingdom of Stormwind, which had become stronger after the war.
Thinking of the Duke's position that had been reserved long ago, someone looked back with a smile and said: Forget about me, a scumbag who has climbed up the wall! Goodbye!
right!
This scene is very much like staring at the dark campus in the middle of the night in college, and then leaping towards the snack street filled with the aroma of midnight snacks——
Well, that's a bit too far away. Just when their eyes were facing each other, and perhaps sparks would bloom in the focus of their eyes at the next moment, there was a knock on the door.
"Knock knock!"
"Duke Stratholme, I am Balasa, the Prime Minister of the Left Palace. Your Majesty has invited me!"
Ding!
Kalia's face began to lose color. The palace minister actually found this place, which means that the father must be unhappy.
McDonald turned his face sideways and looked at the door. From an angle that Kalia couldn't see, his eyes were full of amusement - this routine is a bit familiar!
Doesn't this sound like that? You tease people to the point where they don't want them, and then you play hard to get.
Alas, the buddy in the next dormitory was treated like a 70-point girl and used as a meal ticket for four years.
McDonald made an OK gesture to Kalia. He knew she couldn't understand it, but his confident smile infected Kalia.
He tried his best to say in a witty tone: "A vassal has the duties of a vassal, doesn't he? Maybe the next time we meet will be after the war."
"Ah!?" Kalia was shocked. She didn't react. She could only stare at McDonald's back in a daze. It wasn't until the thin figure disappeared at the door that she subconsciously felt a sense of loss.
He stretched out his right hand, as if wanting to retain...
As expected, McDonald saw the expressionless Terenas in the royal study.
If it were a centralized king, McDonald would probably be sent to the remote Arctic continent Northrend to live a life of northwest wind at this moment.
The grand duke of the feudal system is the emperor of the land.
"Your Majesty, are you looking for me?"
"It's been a while since you've been in Lordaeron. Now all the dukes are going back to their fiefdoms to prepare. You can go back in two days after discussing the armaments. I'm very nervous! I hope to see Stratholme's invincibility
I don’t want to see it, because it means the beginning of all-out war.”
The bastard old man, after receiving the news that I was instigating the idiot, he drove me out like a burning ass.
McDonald calmly bowed: "Don't worry! My Majesty, victory must belong to the alliance led by Lordaeron!"
This sounds nice!
Terenas' lips twitched and he smiled, and his gray beard swayed like a dense willow.
"Among my vassals, you are the youngest. But you are undoubtedly the most reassuring to me. Go and prepare! You will get what you want in the future!"
What do I want?
hehe!
McDonald saw through Old Taizi's words, and the sneer in his heart became more and more full of contempt.
"Yes, McDonald's."
"Your Majesty, please give me your instructions."
"My old friend Archbishop Fa'ao proposed to create a new melee profession [Paladin] that uses holy light magic. He said that you have great ideas about this. He wants to use these new professions to form a new order of knights.
To fight the orcs. What do you think?"
McDonald nodded: "I have received the news. The North County Monastery east of Stormwind City has fallen. Although some priests have been evacuated in advance, many priests were still killed. Ordinary knights do not know healing skills, priests do not know how to fight, Archbishop Fao
It’s normal to have the idea of creating a [Paladin] profession.”
"Faol wants to hold a job transfer ceremony in Stratholme City. As my representative, go and observe the ceremony and make an evaluation! If the new job is feasible, then I will sign a permission order to form a knighthood - allowing the Knights of Holy Light to
Recruiting volunteers from all over Lordaeron."
Terenas pushed a parchment scroll with the king's seal with his thin fingers, and the guard handed it to Macdonken.
McDonald picked it up and glanced at it quickly, frowning: "Your Majesty, if it succeeds, what will happen to these... Paladin's equipment?"
The cunning in Terenas' eyes flashed away: "Lordaeron is in the stage of comprehensive preparations for war, and the national treasury is also very tight. I can approve one thousand gold coins. The rest is up to the Archbishop to raise money from the believers."
One thousand gold coins is an astronomical figure for ordinary people.
For forming a brand new order of knights, this is really a waste of money.
Paladins can use love to generate electricity without any reward. But humans and horses need food, and equipment costs money.
As a plate armor profession, a set of paladin equipment, including a horse, costs at least 20 gold coins.
According to Faao's idea, it can't be done without 50 gold coins.
Could it be that there are only 20 people in a knighthood?
McDonald understood instantly - Lao Taizi was wary of Faao's 'Paladin' after all.
Alonsus Faol was a noble saint, and when he recommended it to Lao Taizi, he must have mentioned Uther's and their names.
It is a good thing to not avoid suspicion when doing internal promotion.
The bad thing is that the Four Silver Saints appeared in Lao Taizi's sight early because of a certain time traveler before they changed jobs.
They were there to fight Zumasha'er, and they were there to rescue the king in the palace.
No matter how arrogant Lao Taizi is, he can't help but wonder: Are these four guys working with McDonald?
This thousand gold coins is Terenas's test. Even if the Paladin is successful, he still wants to see if McDonald can invest heavily.
If it were almost fully owned, Terenas would equate this Paladin Order with the Knights of Stratholme.
At this moment, McDonald seemed to hear the bell of fate.
The king’s fear!?
No!
What a divine assist!
The Knights of the Silver Hand of the Church of Holy Light cannot connect with the royal family, so can Uther still be a national advisor?
