Chapter 974 Chapter 205. Winning over important figures

"Yes... for the people..."

Annan sighed: "Are the people of Ize Bay willing to stand on our side?"

"They are...still waiting and watching."

I can't say I'm disappointed, but Xiao Smo does think these civilians are too slow. Even when the fire is on them, they are still doing their own things numbly.

"That's how they are. They will help whoever wins." Annan smiled and found that Little Smo was hesitant to speak. "What's wrong?"

"Lord Annan, I think... whoever they help will win."

"That's true. If you want them to help us, we need an inducement."

"What's the introduction?"

“That’s what we’ve always done.”

Those leaflets revealed the existence of the plague and told people about the evil deeds of the kingdom.

"But that's not enough. We have to let them see that we will win, then they will stand on our side. Little Smo, I'm giving you a new mission now: the all-out war has begun. All undercover agents will be temporarily assigned to the Free Blade and you will be in charge. I will send reinforcements to help you capture Ize Bay. Your mission is to pick them up and help them take over Ize Bay."

"Yes, my lord!"

There is still a huge gap in strength between the Kingdom of Rekanel and Free City.

Even though the Kingdom had been weakened for so long and Liberty City was constantly improving its strength, they still couldn't confront the Kingdom head-on.

So Liberty City must dismantle the kingdom from within.

Now it seems that the initial results have been achieved. Countless sparks have lit up in the kingdom, but in order to make the sparks spread, more fuel is needed...

A few hours after contacting Liberty City, a large amount of supplies were delivered to the Orc Tribe.

There was no time to contact the Orc Tribe for the time being, so Annan left the task of winning them over to the Howler, and then opened the portal again.

A neat army of soldiers in black painted armor stepped out of the portal. They were silent and cold, like the wind and snow in winter.

Looking at them, little Small suddenly began to tremble with excitement.

With his empty sleeves swinging, the one-armed Femi came up to Little Smo and spoke in a low voice, "Xing'er City now belongs to Free City. Lord Annan sent us to continue supporting Free Blade."

……

wow-

Cloe woke up and kicked over the table.

The cups and plates on the table were blown away, rolled down the stairs, and hit the legs of the guards who came rushing over.

"Where's Renato! Let him come to see me!" Clo roared.

The guards, who had never seen the king in this expression, hurried out of the king's bedroom. Not long after, the Minister of the Interior, Renato, arrived in his nightgown.

bang——

As soon as Renato came in, he was almost knocked out by a fruit that hit his head. But it was the king who did it, so he could only lower his head and say, "Your Majesty..."

"What do you do? That warlock is almost riding on my neck! Where is your army?"

Renato didn't know how the lazy and calm king became like this, and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, our strength is all in protecting the capital—"

"I don't want to hear excuses! Send soldiers to destroy them, or get out and let someone else be the military minister!"

Renato looked terrified, but he still tried to dissuade them: "Your Majesty, Liberty City is a strong enemy. If we send all our people to Ize Bay, the new capital will be empty..."

The young king was about to lose his temper when a strange fluorescent green light suddenly flashed in a corner of the bedroom where no one could see.

Clo seemed to have regained his composure and slowly sat back on the bed: "Reinato, what are you worried about?"

Renato was relieved to see the king return to his usual attitude. "Your Majesty, the ratmen have been unwilling to give up and spread the plague on the border. I am worried that they will infect the new capital."

"Rat people... Haha, our strongest enemy is not outside, but inside."

"I……"

"I'm tired of a group of ants biting my skin endlessly, Renato, do you understand?" Renato hesitated, "But the congressmen..."

"Reinaldo." The king narrowed his eyes lazily. "This country used to be called Montreal, but now it's called Montreal."

"Your Majesty, I understand."

Renato, in a bad mood, hurried out of the palace.

It was just getting light outside when a large dark cloud was drifting over the horizon, about to block out the rising sun.

Before carrying out the king's order, the military minister sent someone to the Speaker's estate and then returned to his official residence.

"Master... Master... Please give me some money..."

A poor man who came from nowhere followed the carriage to beg, but was driven away by the guards.

"How terrible..." the captain of the guard whispered.

The subordinates next to him echoed: "Yes, they actually let beggars run to the inner city."

When I returned to the military residence, a businessman came out complaining, "These bureaucrats are so bad..."

The guards at the door heard it and restrained him as if he were facing a great enemy.

The businessman struggled and argued loudly: "What are you doing! I didn't even say which bureaucrat it was, how can you arrest me at will!"

"Stop lying!" the guard roared. "Don't I know which bureaucrat is bad?"

After watching for a while, Renato said, "Let him go."

The guard quickly let go of the merchant, stood up and shouted, "Master Renato!"

"Merchants are the foundation of the kingdom. Don't treat them so roughly." Renato said with some sadness. He looked at the merchant who survived the disaster and waved his hand impatiently: "You... forget it. Be careful not to talk nonsense anymore."

After saying this, Renato ignored the reactions of the two and walked into the official residence.

Back in the office, Renato took off his coat with a sense of relief and was about to hang it on the hanger behind the door when he suddenly noticed a figure standing next to the hanger.

"Who are you?!"

The figure took the coat and hung it on the hanger: "Can we talk?"

Renato said sternly, "If you don't get out, I'll call the guards!"

"Why do you pretend not to know? I think you have guessed who I am..."

Renato was silent for a moment: "Give up, I will never surrender to Liberty City!"

The figure smiled and said, "You are very vigilant. Don't worry, I am the Free Blade, not someone sent by the betrayer to test you."

Those who dare to call the king a traitor seem to be not really the king's men.

Renato put away his loyalty and sized up the figure, "You dare to come here, aren't you afraid that I will call for someone to arrest you?"

"We Freeblades fear no life or death."

Renato wanted to make a few sarcastic remarks, but when he thought about the battle reports sent from the border... these guys were indeed fearless and unafraid of death.

His expression changed and he began to chase people away: "Go away while I'm in a good mood."

He didn't want to offend Liberty City, nor did he want to betray the kingdom.

The figure showed no intention of leaving, but took out a piece of parchment: "Military Minister, I think you should have heard of it."

Invitation card……

A word came to Renato's mind. Of course he recognized it. It was said that with an invitation letter, one could join Liberty City...

But he was a minister of the kingdom, a noble of high status, a military minister trusted by the king, and a mere invitation letter -

"This is a letter of recommendation. With it, you can work in Liberty City."

"What do you want me to do?"
