Chapter 199 Royal City Expansion

 As disputes continued to occur in Augu City, the workload of the imperial cavalry and city guards became increasingly heavy. The noise continued from early morning to the next early morning, and the complaints of the nobles became more intense.

Therefore, in today's royal meeting, King Fernando of August appeared extremely tired, his eyes were somewhat sunken, and his energy was even more depressed.

"We should issue temporary laws to restrict everyone's behavior to prevent the royal city from falling into chaos." Prime Minister Manuel said first.

"We should spread the glory of the gods. The power of faith will last forever in our hearts, and people will naturally restrain their behavior." University scholar Knut said.

"We should expand Augu City. The number of people is an indicator of prosperity, and the solution cannot be restriction, but combing." Finance Minister Woodleg Frey finally said.

The stone room instantly became quiet, and the ministers had already expressed their judgments. And the final decision-maker was naturally Fernando, who sat at the top.

But now King Ogu has a splitting headache. What is on his mind is not the solution, but the volumes of foreign official documents.

"Anthony, the imperial cavalry are not allowed to enter the city anymore. They are not police officers, and they cannot waste time because of this." Fernando looked at his eldest brother and said softly.

Anthony is not a strategist, so naturally he can only nod in agreement. In his opinion, it doesn't matter whether it is chaotic or not, as long as it does not endanger his brother's life, do whatever you want.

"Yuri, I'll leave the goblin affairs to you. You know the key points better than I do." Fernando looked at his second brother again and said with a wry smile.

Yuri also nodded. Among these foreign races, perhaps only the goblins should never be offended. Because the ten magic cannons of the empire are the testimony of their friendship.

"Frey, is your suggestion mature? I need to hear more touching words." Fernando spoke again, but this time the target was the Minister of Finance.

After hearing this, Prime Minister Manuel sighed, and Grand Scholar Knut instantly became less interested. Since King Augu named the Minister of Finance, the fate of Augu City will naturally be decided.

"Demolish the entire east gate defense line, thoroughly clean up the garbage dump area, triple the slum area to the current size, and establish a new aristocratic area with the black jail as the center."

"And as a fortification, I suggest that it be personally guarded by the Imperial Legion. It will be the new trading area of ​​Aogu City, perhaps surpassing the Secret Art Market in the future."

Wooden Leg Frey was talking eloquently, and his eyes even flashed with heat. Everyone fell into deep thought after hearing this, thinking about the pros and cons.

"Then which legion do you want to guard?" Yuri smiled and softly broke the silence in the stone room.

"I'm not a professional, but I personally feel that only the combination of fighting spirit and magic is the most powerful existence." Wooden Leg Frey said again.

Anthony and Yuri looked at each other, and both saw the surprise in each other's eyes. Because Frey was not a member of the Imperial Legion, he naturally did not know such a confidential strategic decision.

Anthony laughed, then stood up and left the stone room. Yuri also nodded to Fernando, indicating that the Imperial Legion agreed to this arrangement.

"Very good, I'll leave this matter to you. If it's not a big deal, don't bother me." Fernando braced himself and said.

Today's imperial meeting lasted until the afternoon. The fierce quarrels made the guards look at each other, and occasionally broken wine glasses were replaced by servants in time.

Finally, amidst the heavy footsteps of the imperial cavalry, the east gate of Aogu City, which had existed for thousands of years, slowly collapsed. Yuri and Anthony also stood beside King Aogu.

"It's fine as long as Yuri stays with me. Brother, you can do whatever you have to do." Fernando said with a pale face, because he thought of the blessed knight who accompanied him to shit.

"No! The three of us are of one mind, eating and sleeping together! Reminiscing about the past...the past...you know, hahahaha." Anthony waved his hand, and the palace was once again surrounded by strong men with fighting spirit.

Yuri smiled bitterly when he saw this. It was only then that he understood Fernando's depression. This was no protection, it was clearly a prison.

But the three of them didn't care about it anymore. They were sitting side by side in the courtyard, drinking wine and chatting about words that were rarely spoken on weekdays.

But looking back at Finance Minister Woodleg Frey, he now feels that the blood in his body is flowing at a high speed. Changing the world is exciting, but it is also difficult to determine the future of Ogu City.

Sitting in the carriage, he looked coldly at the garbage dump not far away. This was his heartache, and it was also a stain on his being the Minister of Finance.

"Damn maggots, today is the day you die. Since you are worthless, get out of Aogu City." Wooden-legged Frey thought, and the swallow-headed cane lightly tapped the wooden board.

I saw nearly a hundred imperial cavalry starting to attack. They had only one mission today, and that was to kill everyone they saw. No matter their status, no matter how high or low they were, no matter their age.

"Brother, what's going on? Have we been discovered?" Rikka was standing on the top of the garbage mountain, shouting down.

"Come down quickly, put away the Wonder House, we have to escape." Boom instantly used the black wood staff, and an extra mid-grade magic crystal appeared in his left hand.

A few minutes later, the two people shuttled through the garbage dump and ran quickly towards the Miracle Plains. But a voice suddenly sounded, filled with fear and endless hope.

"Sister, are you leaving? Can you take me with you?" The little boy stood in front and asked crying.

"Give you three minutes, I'll go check out the situation first." Boom said coldly without any mercy in his eyes.

Rikka's body trembled slightly as she pulled the little boy aside and then took out a heavy money bag from the dimensional space.

"Big sister can't take you away. This money is enough for you to spend a lifetime. Run in that direction and don't look back." Rikka stuffed a candy into the other person's mouth, then stood up and ran away.

The little boy froze in place, but his years of experience as an orphan were perfectly reflected at this moment. He looked back at the garbage dump where he had lived for many years, and then ran into the Miracle Plains.

As for Rikka who caught up with Boom, she followed him silently and ran out of the attack circle in a moment. The two of them were lying on a boulder, always watching the chaos in the garbage dump.

Countless people were cut into two pieces, and the cries soared into the sky, but eventually turned into pieces of red clouds. A dozen fire magicians chanted incantations, and the garbage mountain was swallowed up by the sea of ​​​​fire, and the iron mouth with the scent of medicine remained.

The pot gradually dissolved.

"If you want to find that little boy, I can accompany you." Boom said softly.

"I only care about my brother. Touching is the most delicious condiment, but it can't fill my stomach." Rikka held Boom's arm and replied quietly.

It was night, and the flames at the east gate of Augu City did not dissipate at all. The old nun knelt down in front of the statues of the gods and recited sacred texts in a low voice. Boom and Rikka returned to the familiar dense forest.
