in the name of the queen

Chapter 239: Outlaws must be punished!

From Fort Saint-Rulic to Sussex City.

From the Great Dome of the Temple of Nature to the Resurrection Temple of the Temple of Light, everyone is thinking about the same question.

What is Alina doing? What is Marco doing?
The whole world wants to know the answer.

They couldn't understand that this civil war, which in their eyes was supposed to be a life-and-death struggle, had turned into this.

Since Alina landed, she did not immediately assemble an army to march to the capital like the normal process of starting a rebellion. Instead, she took her time in Port Yves to stock up on supplies and form a team.

She didn't even play the banner of another golden kite.

All the major forces in the world are confused.

What is this operation?
After all, opposing Marco does not mean supporting Alina. The total number of troops she can assemble does not exceed 100,000. If she does not take advantage of the high morale to march towards the capital, will the rebel team be saved after they are disheartened?

Does this still look like avenging your father?

He will succeed.

This is the faction that represents the old aristocracy and the military, and is his mortal enemy.

What if you arrest the wrong person?
Not much to do, just serve it cold. Many people died innocently in the castle prison, including this one.

Following Luna's explanation, Marco got the answer he expected.

With the interrogation report in hand, Marco stayed up all night and was silent the entire night.

He even arrests people who are not suspected, let alone those who are really suspected?

He acted as if nothing had happened in the south, and kept order in the capital step by step.

There were things he couldn't possibly tell a prisoner.

From the day Allen was assassinated, he had no friends, no family, and no subordinates to whom he could speak his mind.

Marco guessed, but not entirely, and had reasonable reasoning.

Even if he fails unfortunately, he will burn away all the shackles of corruption, allowing those who come after him to build a new free country on this unlocked ruins.

For this ideal, no matter how many people are sacrificed, it is worth it.

He had never been so alone. There were only enemies and people around him who could help him deal with them, and he no longer had any emotional fluctuations.

Although it is confusing, everyone knows that there is no possibility of reconciliation between Alina and Marco. After all, this is the revenge of killing their father.

Alina had no choice but to basically copy the policies left by her father and make some slight improvements.

He decided to burn this decayed old world and reshape the new world.

Alina's abnormal behavior is puzzling, and Marco's reaction is even more unexpected.

"How do you know it was me?"

Unlike Marco, who is cold and decisive, the main thing Alina in Port-If does this month is to constantly compromise and coordinate.

No matter how Alina asked, he basically declined on the grounds that he did not want to interfere in other countries' internal affairs.

As the gendarmes and police were dispatched, the originally chaotic city of Cité miraculously returned to its previous order.

Marco's eyes flashed with an imperceptible cold light.

Luna is still too young.

He asked Marco reluctantly.

Marco handed him over to the interrogator without saying anything more.

After Allen was assassinated, he did not appoint Allen's deputy to manage intelligence work. Instead, he found a reason to throw Allen's deputy into prison and used the Great Memory Restoration Technique.

When he walked out of the small study, no one knew that a cold and emotionless reformer had appeared.

Everyone is looking forward to their next move.

"Guess?" Allen's deputy was almost desperate. He couldn't believe this reason.

Rowland had little input into her policy plans.

Whoever benefits is the most suspect.

He was indeed too kind, allowing these people who should have been completely eliminated the right to speak.

After surviving several rounds of torture, Allen's deputy finally collapsed from the torture.

Marco is busy until late at night every day.

Marco, who entered a completely cold-blooded mode, spent a month to complete the order and army reorganization in Xidai City.

According to this logic, Allen's deputy Luna is a major suspect.

Allen's assassination took away his last smile.

"Guess." Facing the enemy who had already surrendered, Marco was very honest and didn't bother to lie.

His comrades either died in the struggle or were guillotined by his own hands. Allen was the only one left.

Just when the whole world couldn't understand it, Marco and Alina were actually not idle.

The Flower Moon Faction took action.

In her opinion, the monarchy is indeed corrupt, but in an era when extraordinary beings exist, how can people be completely equal?

Isn't it a joke to allow a transcendent being like Sophia to enjoy the same political treatment as an old farmer on the roadside?
Alina remembered the only advice Roland had given her.

Respect reality.

The reality is that Jinyuan is a complicated country.

More complex than any other country in the world.

Jinyuan is the only major country in the world where all three major religions are legal, and it is the major country where foreign races account for more than 20%.

The foreign races in other countries are other races of the human race, while the foreign races of Jin Yuan are other races.

In Jinyuan Country, as long as the tax payer population reaches a certain number, it can be recognized.

If the taxpayer population is insufficient, you can join the military.

This tolerant foreign policy allows Jin Yuan Kingdom to have the richest types of people and soldiers.

This is a magical army that has both druids and priests, wizards who play with voodoo dolls and knights who believe in light fight side by side, and centaurs and werewolves serve as mobile troops.

Unlike the pure bloodline of Sussex, the Golden Kite Kingdom is too complicated.

If there were only the problem of alien races, Jin Yuan might not be considered the most complicated.

After all, there are foreign races in many countries. For example, the Vladimir Empire has mysterious Ursine Berserkers in its army.

The complexity of Golden Kite exists in all aspects. In the commercial field, aristocratic business groups, civilian business groups, and the once-existing royal business groups competed with each other for profit and restricted each other, and never formed a joint force.

In the industrial field, the archaeologists and the reformers argued endlessly.

In the alchemy industry, the Mithril Society and the Black Iron Society have been bitter rivals for many years.

There is a magical legend in the Rodinia continent that the united golden kites are invincible.

This legend is also a classic joke because no one can unite the Golden Kite.

The famous Iris Emperor in history couldn't do it, and Carlo, who overthrew the monarchy, couldn't do it. Can Alina do it?
Roland originally wanted to help Alina with advice, but chose to remain silent after fully realizing the diversity of the Golden Kite.

Just a small Port-if was an eye-opener for Roland.

He witnessed with his own eyes the brown-striped centaur and the black-striped centaur fighting over which color of magic stripes looked better, and personally felt the chain of contempt within the werewolves.

Depending on the degree of wolf transformation, those who are more like humans are called werewolves, and those who are more like wolves are called werewolves.

This was Roland's understanding before coming to Golden Kite. After coming to Port If, his understanding was shattered.

It turns out that among werewolves there is a difference between a human-turned-werewolf and a wolf-turned-werewolf.

Among human wolves, there are differences between werewolf wolves and human wolves.

To put it simply, according to the cognition of human wolves, the higher the wolf content, the more noble it is.

In the eyes of werewolves, having too much wolf content means being far away from civilized society and being barbaric.

The most humanized of the werewolves are indistinguishable from their appearance.

Even on a full moon night, they will not turn into wolves and lie on the ground, but they will strengthen their teeth and claws when fighting.

After the werewolf historian introduced by Alina introduced the sixteen detailed classifications of werewolves and werewolves, Roland was completely silent.

He chose to give up.

Let the Jin Yuan people handle the matter themselves.

He only does two things.

The first is to prevent Alina from going berserk, and the second is to remind Alina to respect reality.

Roland, who was at a loss what to do, spent every day in the best hotel in Port-if, enjoying the soft bed and the delicious food prepared by Lisa herself, and then waited in a daze.

Unlike Roland who was at a loss, Bridges, the commander of the Fourth Fleet who accompanied him, was a little unable to sit still.

Blockade of Port Ifes in the name of military exercises and forcing the port to surrender made him proud and looking forward to new opportunities for meritorious service.

However, he soon became disappointed.

The Fourth Fleet had nothing to do since it entered Port-If.

Bridges originally ordered the sailors to stay on the ship and prepare to join the war, but for the next month there was no order to take action.

Facing more and more complaints from the sailors, Bridges had no choice but to allow the sailors to go ashore to release their pent-up emotions.

Before the sailors came ashore, Bridges made a last-ditch effort to lecture the sailors and ask them to respect local laws.

However, on the day the sailors landed, all the brothels in Port-If were full.

Jin Yuan people have backbone.

Even shameless prostitutes were unwilling to receive dirty and vulgar Sussex people. However, when the Sussex sailors paid twice their night wages, their moral integrity floated to the ground along with their clothes.

As long as there is 100% profit
Ahem, Karl is right.

This night, Sussex people and sex-seekers from other places fought in many nightclubs, which kept the police busy.

In the early morning of the next day, Alina was annoyed and helpless and couldn't figure out how to deal with these sailors disturbing the peace at midnight, so she had to find Roland.

While Roland was enjoying the unique sea snake soup, Alina walked in with slightly dark circles under her eyes.

Seeing that Alina looked a little weird, Lisa found an excuse to leave and handed the small restaurant to Alina and Roland.

She doesn’t understand politics and doesn’t like it.

She also hopes to make delicious food that touches Alina's soul and get more high-quality reviews.

After watching Lisa leave, Roland put a piece of boiled snake meat into his mouth and asked with a smile while enjoying it:

"Alina, it looks like you didn't sleep well last night. I suggest you share this delicious food and go back to get some beauty sleep. Lack of sleep is the biggest enemy of beauty."

"I never cared about superficial things like that. Well, I do, but I'm not in the mood to sleep right now."

Alina thought of several ways to speak, but finally chose to tell the truth.

After she finished talking about the chaos on the sailors' night last night, Roland asked in a deep voice:
"Are there any casualties?"

"Have."

Alina's voice was a little hoarse. She pushed up her gold-rimmed glasses and said helplessly:

"You know how annoying it is to be pulled out of a woman's bed after drinking. Of course the sailors of the Fourth Fleet will resist. As far as I know, at least a dozen police officers and three soldiers were killed in the conflict."

Roland spread his hands and teased with a smile: "How do I know this? I don't have such a rich and colorful experience."

Alina was speechless. Roland still had the intention to joke at this time?

She sighed softly: "Don't worry, I won't embarrass your men. I will let someone secretly release him in a few days. If it doesn't work now, I have to give an explanation to those who follow me, even if it is superficial."

"boom!"

Roland slapped the table hard, frightening Alina to stand up quickly.

"This group of lawless gangsters must be severely punished! Whatever the punishment is!"

Alina's mind didn't turn around for a while, and she asked softly: "Aren't you angry?"

"Angry, of course I'm angry!"

Roland stood up suddenly, put his hands on his hips, and looked at Alina angrily.

"Even if my men committed a capital crime, you shouldn't have to deal with it. What's more, it's all thanks to me that you can take revenge and counterattack. You dare to attack my people. It's simply ungrateful."

"Grudges and grudges must be dealt with without mercy!"

"I, I definitely didn't mean it."

Alina didn't expect Roland to be so angry suddenly, so she quickly explained to Roland.

She was just halfway through speaking when she looked at Roland's blinking eyes and understood instantly.

This is a play between Roland and her.

Marco did not dare to move, most likely because of the existence of the Fourth Fleet.

Alina and Roland had a public falling out, what else was he afraid of?
