Alien landlady

Chapter 167
The mayor behind him watched the guests go away, and immediately turned around and wrote a letter to report to his superiors. A mage lady surnamed Bai from Gulisi suddenly appeared in the town with a feline magic pet in the shape of a leopard cub. He stayed in the capital for a few days first, and then came to Devil Town. The purpose of coming here is mainly for the ore of Devil City, and he may go sightseeing in neighboring countries through trails.

After writing the letter, the mayor sent someone to send it to his superiors. After reading the letter, the superior followed the military channel according to wartime standards. The messenger rushed to the palace, and finally delivered the letter to the military minister's desk in the early morning.

The letter was presented to King Dwyer I during the imperial meeting in the morning. When he saw the characteristics of the female mage described in the letter, the memory that emerged in his mind was what Daly had mentioned. When she was at school, There is a girl surnamed Bai who owns a shadowless cat, an earth-type magic pet that is rare in the world. She also has magic talent, so she is highly valued by the principal, and she takes it with her to teach it in person during long vacations.

"If the female mage mentioned by the mayor is the one who raised the shadowless cat, she and Dali are alumni, it is reasonable for her to help her, but it is very strange, why she appeared alone in Devil Town yesterday, and the two of them separated If so, where did Daly go? Is there anyone around her for protection?" Dwyer I felt that something was wrong.

"Your Majesty, if it's such a powerful female mage, we won't be wronged for our defeat in those few days, and we have to thank her for being merciful." The military minister didn't want to conflict with the mage, and the new king had only been on the throne for about half a year. Stabilizing the current situation politically is the top priority.

"Yes, she showed her strength in those few days and told us that Daly has strong support. We can't take her lightly, and at the same time, we must show our skills. In the final analysis, it was Gulisi's trick, just Daly is too naive, thinking that her alumni are sincerely helping her regain the throne, but in fact they just want to take this opportunity to intervene in our country's internal affairs."

"Since discovering the natural cause of Devil City, Gulisi has become our biggest business partner. The products can be sold directly, and the transmission fee alone can make a lot of money. I guess they don't want our country's internal affairs to be unstable." The Chancellor of the Exchequer is all about money, especially now that the treasury is empty.

"No, no, Your Majesty, ministers, I think the more important question now is, since the mayor only found out that Miss Bai was alone in Devil City, where is Daly?" The Minister of the Interior lightly clapped his hands, Remind everyone present where the real focus is.

"They acted separately? There is no one in the guild?"

"Do you want to send someone to look at it?"

"Then turn off the teleportation array?"

"That's meaningless. They can travel between the two countries without the teleportation array. Besides, if they break it again, they may think that we don't want to make friends with Gulisi. Without so many magicians who are willing to spend money, our magic magnet Who will the ore be sold to?" The chancellor of the exchequer vehemently opposed this bad idea that harms others and does not benefit oneself.

"We don't know how many people they have come in total. As a guest, this is really impolite, and there is no reply to the letter sent the night before." The Secretary of the Interior was very angry.

Just as this topic was mentioned, a servant who was running errands under the Minister of the Interior pushed the door into the meeting hall, stood by the door and saluted the king and the ministers before walking forward, holding an envelope in his hand.

"Your Majesty, minister, this one just appeared on your table suddenly, and it said the message from the envoy of Gulisi." The servant handed the letter to the minister and stepped back, and Dwyer I also stepped down from the throne , Stand with the ministers and listen to the letter read by the Minister of the Interior.

The letter was, of course, written by Pollock, in the style of his best political clericalist, beginning with an introduction to himself as an honorary citizen of Tamir, Countess Wismar of Bazio, Salter of Gulis Pollock, the insignificant subordinate of the Baroness, the partner of the Shadowless Cat, and the insignificant subordinate of Miss Bai, the head of Gulis' Magician Guild, first politely apologize for the inconvenience caused in the capital these few days. Gulisi's respected His Majesty Askem IV's entrustment, he had to make such a decision. Before he returns to Gulisi to report the situation, he will stay in the royal capital for a few days, and he is looking forward to meeting with His Majesty De Vere I. talk face to face.

After reading the letter, Bai Tongtong was temporarily forgotten, and Dwyer's emissary quickly set off to the Wizards Guild to contact Pollock and invite him to the afternoon tea in the palace.

At about the same time, Bai Tongtong and Ah Huang were sitting on the package of the merchant's truck, driving unsteadily on the boundless grassland of Devil City.

In addition to the flowers, plants and trees on the grassland, there are strange rocks and small rocky mountains standing two or three people high on the ground. The guy who followed the car said that it was the magic magnetic ore. Because the magician solved the mystery, it became a hot seller. , There are no small stones on both sides of the regular route leading to the Biddle Trail. Many people venture to unfamiliar areas where no one has traveled without a map, which is as dangerous as stepping into the desert.

Because of the unique characteristics of magic magnetism, mining has always been a problem. Magicians can use magic to directly obtain useful ores, but the most common people can think of is to use explosives to blow up the hills on the surface. For the huge reserves buried deep underground But helpless.

Any tools with metal parts cannot be brought in, unless referring to the forging method of the special weapons used by the soldiers guarding the gate here, and specially developing new mining tools, but no one has announced the success of the production for so long, and as usual, Even if someone makes it, the price issue is enough to put many people off.

Bai Tongtong was very interested in listening to the boy's chat, but Ah Huang jumped out of the car and wandered around by himself, running away from time to time, and then came back after a while. During the noon break, it actually appeared in the car with a dead pheasant in its mouth. In the middle of the crowd, so Bai Tongtong's lunch is this tender and delicious prey.

It will take several days to cross the Devil City to reach the checkpoint. Bai Tongtong has no patience to follow this convoy for so long. She has her own job, so she can't listen to Pollock's tricks and guard the border for others in Biddle for a long time, so she takes a lunch break Afterwards, she parted ways with the team, and Ah Huang took her deep into the hinterland to a place with rich reserves and nearby water sources, where she did mining experiments.

Pollock, with an image of an elegant gentleman, had afternoon tea with the king and ministers in the palace, discussed many topics, and told Dwyer what he wanted to know most about Daly's whereabouts, but he admitted that Daly left early in the morning Wang Du went to find her relatives, other than that he said he didn't know, at most casually mentioned that it was Miss Bai who helped her get out of the city without anyone noticing, as for where she sent her, it was her The two discussed it in private.

So the topic was brought to Bai Tongtong. While exaggerating her strength, she confessed that Bai Tongtong did the treasury theft. The purpose was only out of sympathy for the alumni. State property to suppress Daly's counterattack.

When he said this, Dwyer and his ministers would not be able to ask about the theft of the property of the queen-to-be, and swallowed it silently, even though they all knew in their hearts that it must be related.

Pollock flaunted Bai Tongtong, and hid himself by the way. After all, he did not lie. Bai Tongtong's noble status is true. Her long title is enough to write a paragraph. With such a dazzling person, Pollock Locke was not worried at all that he would be targeted, so he felt very relaxed in front of His Majesty the King and the ministers, and made the other party feel that Bai Tongtong's strength was unfathomable, otherwise His Majesty Askem IV of Gulis would not send her As a special envoy, he suddenly became afraid.

Compared to Bai Tongtong and Pollock, who were all going well, Daly was much more pitiful. She arrived at an uncle's manor in the morning, but she hadn't seen anyone yet. She just reported her identity and didn't even show her identity token. , was driven out by the manor guards with weapons, and her uncle stood at the door with her family, refusing to recognize her as their niece, threatening to catch her and send her to the palace to receive a reward if she didn't leave.

Harding, who was floating beside him with the Wind Hidden Technique, has been watching coldly, watching how Daly can solve her predicament, standing in front of the sharp spear pointing at her to prove her identity to her uncle, so that it will not come forward to intimidate, but it will cause a lot of trouble big trouble.

But no matter what Daly said, her uncle didn't want to hear it. Seeing that she refused to leave, he simply scolded the soldiers and beat her out with sticks. For the sake of being a lady, she didn't want her life. Trauma as a lesson.

The well-trained soldiers were very skillful in attacking the most painful places on the human body, but they obeyed the lord's order and did not cause serious injuries. They just drove Daly out of the gate of the manor and it was over.

Dai Li endured the pain all over her body and got up from the ground. The people passing by in the driveway looked at her curiously. Many people looked at her with disdain, scolded her for being shameless, spat at her, and dared to ask the lord to pretend to be relatives. , it was the lord's mercy that she was not killed.

Wiping her tears and limping, amidst the scolding of the people, Dai Li walked to a secluded corner of the street. Ah Huang wrapped her up in a gust of wind, disappeared in an instant, and rushed directly to the next relative's territory.

After arriving at the second location, Daly behaved herself, and was not in a hurry to go to her relatives' house. Instead, she found a nearby hotel to stay in, and bought some medicines to make a water treatment for her injuries. Harding watched her settle down before returning to the capital of Green Gaicheng , waiting for Pollock to come back from the palace at the guild, and took him to see Daly.

Daly had already tidied herself up at that time, and the pain in her body had been healed under the effect of the magic potion. The psychological shield that pretended to be strong cracked when she saw Pollock. Immediately collapsed, threw himself into his arms and cried bitterly.

Pollock had to put up a barrier to block her cries from being heard by people outside, and then helped Daly by the shoulders and sent her to a chair to sit down.

Daly cried loudly, as if she wanted to vent the bad emotions brought about by today's unsatisfactory day. While crying, she scolded the uncle who turned his face and refused to recognize anyone.

"Based on his title, he didn't have such a large territory in the first place. It was all merged from generation to generation. Sometimes when they get two pieces of land that are not adjacent to each other, they will take away the landlord who is caught in the middle. Buy, those who resist will be arrested and imprisoned, if they are nobles, they will marry, they have the title of members of the royal family of the Akley Dynasty on their heads, no one dares to fight against them, now that shameless bastard of Dwyer has robbed me of the throne, they just pretend they don’t know each other I, I curse them to never have a good life."

"Calm down, my Majesty, it's just one person who rejected you. There are four more people on your list. As long as there is one person who stands by your side, there is a chance."

"What if no one supports me?"

Pollock shrugged.

"You want me to admit defeat? I'd rather die!" Daly grabbed Pollock's collar excitedly, "Help me! Please help me! No one can beat you, grab them all and declare They plot treason, please!"

"Your Majesty, this is not how things are done. I killed them all, and then I sat on the throne?" Pollock smiled and kissed Daly's fingers, "As a queen, you have to convince your people that you have The ability to lead them back to the peak of the Akley dynasty, this is your war, you have to do it yourself, if I help you, Dwyer will definitely bite this point and criticize and discredit you, which will make you disadvantageous Things get worse. Will you be a good queen?"

"I am! Of course I am! I know, I will work harder, if no one supports me, I will go to the royal cemetery to dig my tomb, and tear off the shameful face of that liar!"

"I'm relieved that you can think like this, my dear Her Majesty the Queen. You worked hard today, let's go out to eat something, and then you have a good rest. Tomorrow will still be a hard day."

"Thank you, Mr. Pollock, thank you for your kindness, but I think you must be tired all day today, it's better not to trouble you, I'll just eat something at the hotel. Tongtong has gone to Devil City, I don't know her What will you meet there, will you go to see her?"

"Of course, I'll go and see her in a while. If something happens to her, I won't be able to do business in front of His Majesty. I only got permission after assuring Her Majesty of her safety. I have suffered. A nobleman once provoked her, which caused the wrath of the mages, and ended badly for that person."

"Oh, my God, Tongtong's status in the magic circle is so high!"

"She is amazing. She once killed a necromancer creature with her cat. She is not a formal magician yet, but she was able to become the guild leader because of this. Not only shocked the entire magic circle at that time, but even His Majesty and ministers all know her name, and they begin to face up to her existence and look forward to her future achievements."

"My God! So, no wonder, you always insist on her coming, and no one else."

"She alone can be used by several people. My Majesty the Queen also came to support you because she believed that you would be able to take back everything that belongs to you. You will not let her down, right?"

"Yes, I can't let her down, I can't let that bastard Dwyer snatch her over, I must work hard!"
