Otherworld Qin

Chapter 441 Chapter 466
Julio's words shocked Sheng Xuan's heart, but then he changed his mind and didn't reveal anything. Instead, he leisurely picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and watched the other party's slight changes with eyes. , I want to find a little truth from him.

But he gave up after a while, because Julio's repeated performances were definitely not pretending. If he could pretend to this level, it could only be said that this person was extremely scheming, but why would he have any reason to lie?Could it be that he has already received the news that he has something to ask of him?
If this is the case, it means that this Grand Duke Julio has never really let down his vigilance towards Sheng Xuan, but what if he really encountered a huge difficulty now?
Seeing that Julio almost drank half of the bottle of spirits in one go, with a strange rosiness in his pale face, Cheng Xuan couldn't help walking over and holding down the bottle he had just lifted up, "Why don't you say that the Grand Duke has any difficulties?" Come out, maybe I can help you."

Julio looked at him drunkenly, and then sighed, "It's a long story to say." Julio tried to snatch the bottle, but he couldn't hold back Sheng Xuan, so he could only sit down resentfully Sitting on the chair, squinting his eyes, he began to talk about the past.

Since Calais started the war, the war has continued to escalate. Finally, in the early spring, Calais launched the largest attack. The slave corps alone spent 500 million in a crazy attack regardless of all costs. Opened the door of Omar.

After that, millions of Calais elites swept across most of the Carolingian Duchy like locusts, and the Grand Duke of the Carolingian Duchy was forced to flee.

At this critical moment, the thirteen principalities actually had internal disputes. First, it started with the Principality of Merovingian, and then Charlotte, Harris and other principalities successively began to strike, refusing to send troops to fight Calais. The upheaval immediately made the situation in the capital even worse.

In desperation, Emperor Nicholas was forced to march in person, because he could awaken the courage of the people, but who would have thought that, less than three days after the king went to the front line, he would be surrounded by Calais. An old general desperately guarding the city, I am afraid that His Majesty the King has already become a prisoner of others.

"This is not the worst." Julio had already buried his body completely in the chair, as if this would give him a sense of security. "Under the influence of Elder Gatiaro, seven principalities rose up to oppose Emperor Nicholas wants to overthrow his rule, the Seven Duchies, this must have been premeditated."

Hearing these things, Shengxuan didn't have any emotional fluctuations at all, because these things are too far away from him, what he cares about now is how to hire mages, how to get more food to feed the orcs and dwarves. abdomen.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Julio continued, "Since our family was enshrined as a duchy here, because of guarding this unlucky mercenary city, people often miss it, and the neighboring duchies of Charlotte and Harris It has been coveted for a long time, and now these two families have finally decided to take advantage of the chaos. A total of 100 million troops have already arrived at the border of my principality, but I have already mobilized 70 troops to the front line to support the empire's war. Where am I? There are still troops to resist this sudden attack."

Shengxuan finally knew about Grand Duke Julio's troubles, but he was not worried. After all, he had served in the Principality's army. I still have some understanding of the strength of the principality.

"A million troops? It shouldn't be a threat to you!" Hearing what Sheng Xuan said, Julio could only smile wryly, "Brother Sheng Xuan, how do you know the danger? I just said that the seven families The principalities teamed up to force the palace, but they didn't say how many principalities supported His Majesty. To tell you the truth, there are probably less than three who can still stand by His Majesty's side. Although the rest have not made a move, they are still waiting and watching, and I am always wandering in the temple. The grand duke between the royal family and the royal family will sooner or later become a victim of this mutiny."

In people's eyes, it is always the mighty Omar Empire, and they did not expect to end up in such a situation of internal and external troubles, but Shengxuan didn't understand why these duchies took action when Calais and Omar were inextricably fighting, it would be bad for them what are the benefits?

"Benefits? Haha, I'm afraid you don't believe me, I'm afraid that after this disaster, there will be no shadow of the Principality of Julio in the world, and the endless mineral deposits in the Moon Dance Forest outside the mercenary city will also be destroyed by Calais and the rebels." The family principality is completely divided, and some people take the opportunity to rise to power, not to mention the benefits of supporting the new monarch, isn't this enough?"

"Isn't there still a temple? Could it be that the temple is just left alone?" "You still don't understand the Temple of Light. The temple is just the belief of the people and never interferes in politics. No matter who is the king, as long as the temple remains standing, the people's If his belief remains unchanged, he will never make a move.

Shengxuan's thoughts turned, and he quickly weighed the pros and cons. When he heard the name Gatiaro, he already had the intention to participate in it. There is no small benefit.

If I help the royal family to turn the tide at this time, can't I get a hundred mages and some food in exchange?Although there is no guarantee that the food and grass will last for a long time, the urgent need can always be resolved. When the strong city of the Swamp of Rage is broken, it is equivalent to opening the way to attack Calais. rise.

"I can help you!" Shengxuan's words immediately made Julio's eyes light up, but the light in his eyes dimmed immediately after a flicker, "You can't help me either, and if I borrow soldiers from you, then It is the army of orcs, even if we can successfully keep the royal family and quell the rebellion, I will also be accused of colluding with foreign enemies to kill my compatriots."

Shengxuan couldn't help frowning after hearing this. He knew Julio's worries. He was afraid that he would send troops straight into Omar, and if he didn't withdraw his troops after he successfully quelled the rebellion, he would end up with the bitter fruit of attracting wolves into the house.

"I can sign an agreement with Omar on behalf of the orcs. We will be allies forever. Besides, I will not send troops in the name of orcs. You must know that I am the head of a mercenary group, and I am a mercenary who has just been promoted to S rank group!"

These words finally really ignited Julio's hope. He couldn't help but sit up straight, staring at Sheng Xuan, "Mercenary group? Why didn't I think of it? Tell me, what reward do you want?"

"Employ one hundred mid-level and above mages, some food, and an agreement with Omar." He put the agreement at the end, obviously not optimistic about such a piece of waste paper, just trying to win it, " That's all?" "Yes, that's all!" Seeing Shengxuan's calm answer, Julio began to think carefully, shaking his head and sighing for a while, and then rekindling the fire of hope.

But in the end he got tired again, "Even if I can hire some mercenaries now, plus my own team is only a few hundred thousand, it is already difficult to keep myself, how can I fight against the seven duchies?"

"If the Temple takes action, how sure do you think the rebellion will be quelled?" "The Temple?" Julio knew that Shengxuan had already targeted Gatiaro, but he couldn't think of anything about the Temple. Even if the former participated in the secular contingency as the elder of the temple, as long as he resigned as the great elder, the temple would have no excuse to intervene.

"How could the temple make a move? If they were willing to make a move, it wouldn't be the situation it is today." "What if Gatiaro secretly practiced dark magic?" Sheng Xuan's words came out like a thunderbolt The top of Julio's head immediately made him sit up in shock, "What you said is true? How is this possible?"

"Not only does he practice dark magic, but he is also Brother Reg's father-killer and enemy." Hearing these words, Julio's face suddenly changed drastically, and he glanced at Shengxuan unconsciously, but he immediately avoided after just a glance. It seems to be hiding a secret in my heart.

After listening to Shengxuan's personal description of the tragic vendetta, Julio slowly calmed down, then grabbed the wine bottle next to him and took a sip, "I and Reg are as close as brothers, his vendetta is My vengeance, Gatiaro will never let you succeed this time, not only will you be ruined, but you will also have to pay in blood!"

"What should we do now?" Julio put down the bottle and asked, but Sheng Xuan just smiled and didn't answer his question, because with the former's mentality, he probably already had a plan in mind.

Julio stood up abruptly, wanting to call the housekeeper outside the door, but before he could speak, he stopped, looked at Shengxuan and said, "Although it is true that Gatialo practiced dark magic, we How can I prove it? I can’t convince the world to persuade the temple with my red mouth and white teeth.”

"I, as long as I appear in front of him, I'm afraid he will lose control immediately, because I have not only seen him cast dark magic with my own eyes, but I am also his enemy who killed his son!" A raging fire has been ignited, and the tragic scene of that day reappeared in front of my eyes again. Now I have brought down Gatiaro, but I have no chance to see the brothers who were like brothers in the past.

"Okay, but this is just a gamble. If we lose the bet, we will be doomed." "At this point, what are you afraid of? You don't have much bet left, so just give it a go!" "Okay, come!" Hearing this, Julio did not hesitate, and immediately arranged the preparations in front of Shengxuan.

Afterwards, Julio cheered up and reopened a bottle of spirits, poured a full glass for several people, "I knew that brother Shengxuan was my lucky star, and sure enough, you brought me hope when you came, but to add Tiaro's status, I'm afraid not many people believe that if he can get a soul spar and extract the memories of those present in front of everyone, he can be convicted of practicing dark magic, but it's a pity that the soul spar Too rare, hey, what a pity!"

Hearing Julio's words, Sheng Xuan couldn't help but feel his heart move. He has never seen the extraction of memories. Didn't Brother Yanzun give him a map extracted from his memory that day?Thinking of this, he hurriedly searched for Najie, and took out a crystal after a while, "Is the soul spar you mentioned the memory crystal?"
