Annan didn't know how much of his advice Albert had listened to.
But he finally nodded and said he would seriously consider it.
But just as His Highness Albert said... Now in the Kingdom of Noah, even if he is willing to communicate with Nicholas, Nicholas may not be willing to communicate with him.
As the Fufu Church is expelled and imprisoned, the third prince's side will inevitably suffer heavy losses - but the eldest princess, suppressed by the Fufu Church, will gain an even more obvious advantage. In addition, the king's physical condition is getting worse
Not good... As time goes by, more and more officials and nobles will turn to the eldest princess.
The eldest princess was originally the heir designated by the king.
The balance that was originally created when the eldest princess and the third prince confronted each other would collapse in an instant.
Under such a situation, if the third prince wants to survive, he can only try to form an alliance with him to have the possibility of fighting against the eldest princess.
Of course, Albert would definitely not be willing to form an alliance with him, because he also knew that the third prince had planned to sacrifice not only the old king and the eldest princess, but also an inconspicuous and low-key prince like him.
But whether the eldest princess believes it or not...that's not necessarily the case.
For the eldest princess who was born in the military, regardless of whether it was the Yinjue Church or the Rofu Church, they were both threats and destabilizing factors to the Kingdom of Noah - they were "outsiders" who planned to gain power in the kingdom.
For her, the third prince who is close to the Fufu Church and the fourth prince who is close to the Yinjue Church are enemies that need to be eliminated and suppressed. And compared with the third prince who has completely lost power, Albert's sense of existence has become more
Stronger.
So for Albert, after the Roof Church lost power, he was in a desperate situation - the other two royal heirs who had no time to pay attention to him were all hostile to him... and tried to kill him.
But when the Fufu Church originally manipulated him as a marionette, he was able to live safely and serve as a lubricant for the situation.
If it had been before, Albert could have completely given up on the relationship with the Silver Lord Church, completely turned to the eldest princess, completely lowered his profile, and just begged for his life - yes, considering that Albert is lazy, not easy to fight, and has no temper
Considering his gentle and timid character, he is indeed capable of such a thing.
But things are different now.
Albert learned that the only curse currently binding his daughter Kafni was to inherit the throne...
Even Albert, who didn't know much about the extraordinary world, knew that violating the curse would cause great harm to the extraordinary person. He might even die directly.
Even so, he still did not have the determination to seize the throne.
I just plan to "go back and have a look before talking".
Therefore, he did not completely sever ties with the Yinjue Church, but he also did not completely fall over to the Yinjue Church.
But after he learned that Annan needed to go to the royal capital in late spring.
But he made a somewhat bold move——
He wanted to leave Kafni in Roseburg for the time being and go back to see first.
"I'm not sure whether the exclusion of the Fufu Church will result in all of them being arrested immediately due to a miracle, or whether they will need to be arrested one by one."
Albert sighed at that time and said to Annan with some sadness: "If it is the latter, I have every reason to believe... We cannot capture all the Fufu believers. We can only give priority to those in high positions.
A fufu believer."
For example, his wife.
Only now did Albert know why he and his wife had been married for so long but only had one child, Kaifni, not even an illegitimate child...
He could even roughly guess when his wife started to believe in rotten husbands.
Four and five years after Kafni was born, his wife became pregnant twice, but she miscarried both times under the careful care of the royal family. The reason could not even be found. Now it seems that there is only one answer... The fundamental reason is
His wife herself.
After that, his wife never got pregnant again. And because of guilt and intolerance, he did not try to marry another wife.
"But I'm worried that they will guess that it has something to do with me - I'm almost sure of that."
Albert sighed: "As long as I pay attention, it will be no problem to protect myself. At worst, I will stay in the Royal Capital Church and not go out... But Kaifni is different.
"In addition to the Fufu Church who is keeping an eye on her, those from the Hermetic School are also keeping an eye on her. I may not have the energy to protect her in the royal capital..."
When he said this, he glanced at Bishop Darryl secretly.
Although Bishop Daryl's actions were very covert, Albert noticed Bishop Daryl's respect for Annan. But he was smart and didn't say it at all.
He had no choice but to leave Kaifni in Roseburg for a few months.
To be honest, he was not very relieved to leave such a beautiful daughter alone in a foreign country...
After all, he is just a daughter.
But if he doesn't earn the throne, Kafni will probably die in the end; if he tries to earn the throne, Kafni will probably die.
She has only one way to survive.
Staying in Roseburg is the safest option.
Bishop Daryl's identity is mysterious, but Albert knows that he even knew his grandfather - the previous generation of King Noah.
This shows that Bishop Daryl's real age is very old, far beyond the life span of ordinary people... and he is not an extraordinary person at all. Bishop Daryl only looks like a middle-aged man in his forties.
.
But this "middle-aged man" was able to be visited by Sir Silver himself.
But even though he was like this, he was also respectful to Annan.
Coupled with Annan's true identity...
Albert's move to leave Kafni here was actually a well-thought-out move.
If he can seize the throne, then the friendship he and Kaifni have formed with Annan at this time will become a friendly relationship between the two countries that will lead to peaceful coexistence after Annan succeeds as the Grand Duke.
It is different from the warlike views held by the current king and the tough tactics held by the eldest princess.
Albert, who was closer to the people, could deeply understand that... the Noahs did not like war, they loved peace.
More importantly, in the years since peace, their lives have improved rapidly... which will make them instinctively dislike war.
This is undoubtedly a good thing for the development of the country.
And his father's idea of unifying the five countries and rebuilding the Great Barrier is naturally a good thing...
But the problem is.
Compared with the underground Federation with a large population in the dark, the winter people who are accustomed to the long and cold frost winds in the North, the United Kingdom with strong folk customs due to rampant pirates... and the Theocracy with the most advanced technology.
In addition to the most fertile land and the richest metal deposits, the Kingdom of Noah...what other advantages does it have?
What would he use to fight them?
Wouldn't this really make others realize that Noah was a weak fat sheep?
Albert knew deeply: Don't get angry easily.
Once angry, he will try to use his true power. Only then will his enemies who were originally afraid of him realize that his true power is nothing more than this.
Unifying the five countries is not completely impossible. This matter itself is also meaningful.
But this war should never be started by them Noahs——
Otherwise, they who occupy the best position may be surrounded and beaten.
The old king was indeed a noble man.
He only wanted to rebuild the Great Barrier... but forgot about the greed of others.
And currently only the Principality of Winter, the Kingdom of Noah and the United Kingdom need the protection of the Great Barrier.
The Underground Federation has adapted to life in the underground world - and the gray mist cannot penetrate deep underground.
As for the Theocracy...
The Theocracy has solved the gray fog problem once and for all.
They built countless towers of Babel that towered into the sky - building the city in the sky.
They also have barriers, but their barriers are to purify the air at high altitudes so that residents can survive in the sky.
Yes, gray fog is not infinite. It has its height limit.
The Underground Federation chose to flee downwards, and the Theocracy chose to flee upwards... The problem is that they both succeeded.
Even if the gray fog completely buries the above world, it has nothing to do with them.
Therefore, it is impossible for them to support the reunification of the five countries.
At present, the Kingdom of Noah has not encountered any invasion from the Theocracy simply because the Theocracy is in the far east and they are in the far west, spanning the entire continent of Yaseland.
...and the Theocracy does not have the energy to build another set of floating islands.
They looked down on the Noahs—or even on any other people on earth, that’s all.
Albert is not stupid, on the contrary, he is very smart.
But at the same time, he is also very lazy and a little timid. He knows that his character is not worthy of being a king...
However.
——Kafni is different from him.
"Will she be Noah's future queen..."
After Albert left, Annan looked at Kaifni who was grabbing her sleeve, thinking deeply.
It always feels like it’s not quite like...
But as things here come to an end.
Annan knew what he should do first:
Yes, he should issue rewards to players who "participated in the main mission".
