Chapter 1,143: Borrowing Strength, the Prince and the Grand Duke
Zong Shen told almost no one his complete plan.
Except Raven Saint Safuri.
Because of this action against the giant city of Lentax, he was prepared to "borrow strength".
Taking advantage of the competition between the Calamity Raven Church, Princess Anna, Prince Carter, the Lancaster family and other forces to seize the opportunity to enter the situation, what is important is "containment".
When the time comes, it will be enough for him and Xiao Heizi to take action together to disrupt the situation.
Because this plan requires extremely high individual combat power.
You can't participate until your strength level reaches Legend, so he didn't discuss it in detail with others.
Including the newly joined Aila and Heya, Zong Shen also briefly introduced the plan.
On the day when the competition is held, the two Karan sisters, Tasia, Ella, and Heya will leave the city early to avoid being affected by the chaos.
At that time, the Calamity Raven Church will not only summon the projection of God, but also build an ultra-long-distance transmission channel, recruit the church apostles stationed in Jackdaw Valley, and participate in the battle for giant cities.
You must know that the apostles are the elite fighting force in the church.
When the church's army is dispatched to the giant city, and combined with the projection of God, it will be enough to compete with the millions of giant city garrison!
It is no exaggeration to say that the Calamity Raven Church is ready for a head-on confrontation.
Prepare to retreat to Jackdaw Valley immediately after capturing the giant city of Lentax, taking away all the supplies and people in the city to supply more believers for the church.
The church is like a hungry hyena trying to pluck a piece of flesh from the Kingdom of Avalon.
Originally, they were counting on cooperating with Prince Carter in exchange for the opportunity to enter and "dine".
Unexpectedly, he became the abandoned son of the prince.
Stimulated by multiple factors, the Calamity Raven Church did not hesitate to give it a try.
It can be understood that his eyes are red from hunger.
Compared to the "little fight" approach of Princess Anna and the Lancaster family.
The real opportunity for Zong Shen to "take advantage" has to be provided by the Calamity Raven Church.
While introducing the plan to the two girls, Mr. Zong also reviewed the situation in the city.
By the time both parties finished chatting, it was already more than an hour later.
"That's the plan."
"There are less than two and a half days until the competitive meeting is held."
"The meeting will be held on time at noon the day after tomorrow."
"You will leave the giant city of Lentax the day after tomorrow morning to avoid being affected."
Zong Shen crossed his hands and supported his chin.
His eyes are extremely deep.
It's just dawn outside now, and many things still need to be planned.
Ella and Heya were stunned, and after a long time they nodded in confusion.
Zong Shen knew that the two girls were frightened by his plan, so he showed a gentle smile.
"Okay, you go out first."
"Let the housekeeper arrange a room for you."
"By the way, let Les Kazan come to the study to meet me."
"Don't be hostile to him anymore. I have ordered him to shut down all slave trading businesses."
After hearing his words, the two women quickly stood up and performed a breast caressing ceremony.
"Everything is subject to your arrangement!"
They immediately expressed their opinions and left the study until Zong Shen nodded.
About five or six minutes later, Les Kazan carefully knocked on the door and walked in.
Zong Shen was still sitting at the table, pointing absentmindedly at the chair in front of him, gesturing for him to take a seat, and then entered a state of emptying his mind.
After thinking for a few minutes, he came back to his senses.
Les Kazan did not dare to disturb him and could only wait restlessly.
After seeing Zong Shen's unconventional tactics, Earl Rice developed a deep fear of him. Even after joining the territory, this fear could not be completely eliminated.
Zong Shen stretched his waist and recovered his empty thoughts.
"Les, I remember you said that Shuraya Bhutto, the commander of the security forces in the city, is your good friend who grew up with you?"
I saw Les Kazan nodding like garlic.
"Yes, my lord!"
"Shuraya grew up with me and went to the city together."
"The relationship between the Kazan family and the Bhutto family is also relatively harmonious."
After receiving a positive answer, Zong Shen showed a satisfied expression.
"Very good, ask him to come to the manor to meet you."
"As for the time, let's set it tonight."
As soon as these words came out, Count Rice actually showed hesitation.
He understood what Zong Shen wanted Doshuraya Bhutto to do.
He already knew something about the methods of the Chosen Son.
Including himself, he is now restricted by loyalty.
But his hesitation only lasted a moment.
As a territorial citizen, it is difficult for Earl Rice to refuse orders from the lord.
And at that moment, a bad idea suddenly came to his mind:
"Since I am no longer free, why can Shuraya remain free?"
Under the influence of these factors, Les Kazan finally agreed to Zong Shen's request.
"As you wish."
"I will go and invite Shuraya personally."
"As for the reason, let's just say that a great new toy has arrived."
…
Zong Shen waved his hand, he was too lazy to care about the usual exchanges between Les and Shuraya.
As long as he can bring Shuraya into the manor, Zong Shen is sure that he can overwhelm him.
The security army is a branch of the garrison and has tens of thousands of soldiers under its command.
Accounting for approximately one-tenth of the total number of garrison troops.
The most important thing is that as long as Zong Shen can conquer Shuraya, he can use that guy as a thread to peel off the cocoon and gradually corrode the official class that conquered the giant city of Lentax.
Two days is neither too much nor too little.
If used properly, it should be able to win over many people.
At that time, these subdued fungus officials can be used to contain part of the garrison.
At present, Prince Carter should have poached many people within the garrison and the city hall.
Most of the remainder remained loyal to the House of Lancaster.
As long as you are loyal to Lancaster, in a sense, you are loyal to Princess Anna.
As for the Calamity Raven Church, they probably haven’t been able to win over much.
Zong Shen comes to stir things up again, and it will definitely be exciting in the end!
After receiving the order, Les Kazan slowly left the study.
Sitting in his original position, Mr. Zong's expression remained unchanged, and he summoned the strategy module in his heart, preparing to collect more information and prepare for the upcoming dispute.
…
Inside the castle of Marquis Henry.
Prince Carter was leaning on the big bed in the guest room.
Now the only bodyguard left by his side is [Shining Warrior: Kaji Mizzit].
As a legendary strongman, Kaji Mizzit slept next door to the prince.
While living in the castle, he would still give the prince a relatively private space to be alone.
Only when I go out will I follow him inseparably.
In the early morning, the laziness of all things is driven away by the sunshine.
Prince Carter had gotten up early and was holding a small hand-sized mirror.
The entire bedside is shrouded in a light film.
This layer of light film can block prying eyes and eavesdropping, allowing Prince Carter to communicate with confidence.
At this time, within the light film, a man with a solemn expression, wearing a standard brocade dress and gray-haired temples, appeared in the mirror he held in his hand. He had a serious expression and seemed to be calm and confident. He was obviously a man who had been in power for many years.
"Uncle Jonathan, that's just the way it is."
"I suspect that bitch Anna has secretly reached out to the giant city of Lentax."
"There is also the Calamity Raven Church. They did not choose to give in as you said. Instead, they were dormant in the city and seemed to be planning something."
"Without your Shadow Dragon Guard here, I won't be able to collect enough information."
"But these days, I feel very bad, especially after Da Majia disappeared."
Prince Carter looked worried, like a child looking for an adult to complain to.
It's rare to see the bohemian Prince Carter behave like this.
The figure in the mirror listened patiently to his story, then pondered for a moment before slowly speaking.
"Something isn't quite right."
"According to the report from the Shadow Dragon Guard, that girl Anna should still be in the giant city of The Hague."
"She is overseeing the formation of the Kingdom's Seventeenth Fleet."
“The Hague dock is where she devotes most of her energy.”
"The three red archbishops of the Calamity Raven Church broke the Earth Dragon Mirror used to communicate with me."
"Those heretical bugs were very angry. It seems that there was something wrong with your original message."
The voice of the person in the mirror is deep and powerful, like a big leather drum.
He is Jonathan Pendragon.
In terms of age, he is slightly older than King Guser, but he has withstood the baptism of dragon blood.
Now that he still has more than two hundred years to live, he can be said to be in the prime of life.
Just when Prince Carter was about to say something, Grand Duke Jonathan spoke first.
"Forget it, I understand your character."
"The matter of the Calamity Raven Church is not worth mentioning."
"Let's put aside little girl Anna's actions for now. She doesn't dare to directly take your life."
"What worries me more is the attitude of the Lancaster family."
"From your description, Marquis Henry seems to have become hostile to you."
"But I can't figure out where this hostility comes from."
"Is it because you have a crush on his little daughter Penny?"
"But for a marquis' daughter to be matched with a legitimate prince like you, it's quite a feat."
Grand Duke Jonathan was a little confused. The development of the matter had gone beyond his expectation and evolved in an unpredictable direction.
After hearing his words, Prince Carter also became hesitant.
"Probably not..."
"At least when talking about this issue, Marquis Henry never showed displeasure."
"Is it Anna's bewitchment?"
"The competition will be held in two days, and I will have to accompany Penny to participate."
"Uncle Jonathan, I always feel like something is wrong!"
There is always a lingering worry in Prince Carter's heart, which is a sign of lack of security.
Ever since Da Majia disappeared, he had become suspicious.
Archduke Jonathan in the mirror sighed leisurely.
Only he and the late queen knew that Carter was his biological son.
Since Jonathan is also a direct descendant of the royal family, Carter still has royal blood flowing in his body.
"child."
"It's actually very easy for you to do now."
"Either leave the giant city of Lentax as soon as possible and go to the giant city of Dabos."
"That's our territory."
Duke Jonathan throws out a solution.
But Prince Carter shook his head.
"No, I have to stay in the city until the competition is over."
"The conference itself is not important, but it represents Penny's coming-of-age ceremony."
This boy still remembers his mission to pick up girls and is unwilling to leave the giant city of Lentax.
Hearing Carter's words, Duke Jonathan frowned immediately.
He subconsciously wanted to reprimand him, but he resisted the urge.
"I sent people from the great city of Dabos to protect you."
This answer satisfied Prince Carter, and he couldn't help but grinned and asked.
"Who are you going to send?"
"The Dabos Gladiator Twins, and the seventh-level fire magician Doris Hall, she happened to be in the Dabos Mage Tower for a study tour."
"Three legendary strong men are fully capable of dealing with the situation in the giant city of Lentax."
"The main reason is that time is too tight, so we can only dispatch manpower from the nearest giant city under the influence."
"In addition, you can ask the storm knights and high-level dragon eagle knights outside the city to enter the city and stand by."
"Coupled with the life-saving items in your hands, it should be enough to solve the problem."
Archduke Jonathan quickly proposed a new plan.
That is to dispatch more legendary powerhouses to support.
The giant city of Dapos is about 50,000 to 60,000 kilometers away from here, so it is relatively quick to deploy manpower.
"Then let's do it."
After much thought, Prince Carter couldn't think of a better way. It would be good to be protected by a new master.
So he simply agreed.
Then he chatted a few words with Duke Jonathan about the situation in the kingdom, and his voice became lower and lower.
…
Still in the Marquis's castle.
Marquis Henry was sitting in front of his study, with a letter spread out in his palm.
This is an instruction from Princess Anna.
In the past two days, she has sent more elite soldiers from the east.
There are even three legendary strong men among them, who have spent a lot of money.
The Marquis can recruit four legendary strong men from the city.
In total, there are seven legends, most of whom are low-level legends.
But there is also one who is a high-ranking legend!
This power cannot be underestimated in any giant city.
With a population of tens of millions in the giant city of Lentax, there are naturally more than just four legends.
It's just that the other legendary strong men cannot be dispatched by Marquis Henry.
In addition, relevant arrangements have been made for the arena, and there will be a seventh-level magic circle to seal it.
Strive to achieve success every time.
After thinking for a while, Marquis Henry placed the letter on the oil lamp and burned it to ashes.
Just in case, he also arranged a way out. If the matter was exposed, Penny would go to the eastern coast and accept the protection of Princess Anna.
As a condition, Princess Anna promised him new benefits.
This princess has great goals and is about to explore overseas.
She promised to divide a super-giant city-level archipelago into the future and hand it over to Marquis Henry to rule and control.
After she ascended the throne, she made Henry a duke and established a grand duchy belonging to the Lancaster family.
This was a temptation that Marquis Henry could not refuse.
The Grand Duchy is infinitely close to the status of king!
The most important thing is independence, which means that the Lancaster family has the foundation to become a big family!
