A strange world

Chapter 975 Chapter 206. Poison plan

After Renaldo died and ran away in his previous terms, he was selected by the king to serve as the kingdom's military minister.

Renaldo, who thought his fortune was coming, was overwhelmed by the snowflakes of war reports before he could make money like all officials.

Since it is a battle report, it is definitely not good news. And as the Minister of Military Affairs, he had to deal with it.

The huge pressure forced him to restrain his sharpness so that he could roll in the dust.

Skaven, demons, and the biggest trouble in recent times, the Liberty Blade.

While Renaldo was in dire straits, Rekaner was also weakened by the constant blows.

As a result, some evil creatures hiding around the kingdom appeared one after another, cast ill-intentioned glances at this weak human kingdom, and took action.

Renaldo felt that he would soon follow in the footsteps of previous military ministers.

No one is not afraid of death.

Those legendary heroes, are they really not afraid of death?

No, they just fell in pursuit of faith.

But this quality has nothing to do with a nobleman or military minister. Renaldo was afraid of death and that his family would not be able to continue.

So when the recommendation letter was placed in front of him, he agreed to Liberty City without much hesitation.

News reached the Free City that the Minister of War had agreed to cooperate with them, making this the largest official they had ever recruited since launching the war.

At the same time as the news, there was another piece of bombshell news sent back to Liberty City: Eze Bay had been lost.

…

[Letter to Miss Yanez:

Izawa Bay was lost.

Those lowly mud-legged people besieged us. I wanted to serve the kingdom until the end, but they said, do you want your relatives and family members to grieve and allow hatred to continue?

I stopped and let them grab me.

I'm not worried about my family, but I'm worried about you... How sad would you be if you learned of my death?

But those mud-legged soldiers actually confiscated my letters, allowing me to continue writing to you in the dungeon. In addition to us, there were also guards from nearby towns who were imprisoned. It can be seen that Liberty City is serious about it, and they have also sent out their most powerful black armored army with weapons like burning fire sticks.

But there is no need to worry. The kingdom was just caught off guard and attacked by these rebels. Soon, the kingdom will send its elite to attack them head-on.

However, my "prison mates" revealed some disturbing news to me. They said that ratmen were spreading plague on the border... I am worried about my hometown and you.

They were talking again... I heard them say that another group of soldiers were executed by the invaders... I, I may not be able to go back.

My blood will be shed on this land.

Miss Yanes, please forget our agreement and forget me. If you return to your hometown one day, please erect a tomb for me there.

Saint Laurent calendar year 1001, October 18th, Claude]

Claude raised his head, and in front of him was not the clear sky outside the window, but a dark cage.

He and some of his companions who refused to cooperate were imprisoned here, waiting together for the moment to pronounce their fate.

Da da da--

The sound of empty and chaotic footsteps sounded, and the guards pushing the dining cart appeared outside the cell.

The thorns who were locked up together became more energetic, gathered in front of the fence, and attacked these Free Bladers with all the dirty words they could think of.

Claude knew some of the reasons why they did this: to stir up the jailer's emotions and make them unable to help but break in. At that time, they would either kill the jailer and escape, or they would be beaten to death... It was better than continuing to stay in this dark place.

The guards showed dissatisfaction, but no one acted impulsively. They just threw the food into the pen with force.

The steaming bread rolled to his feet, stained with a lot of dirt. Claude picked it up and found that it was no longer the black bread from the previous few days.

what happened?

Claude quietly finished the bread with doubts and took out the letter in his arms.

"Are you going to write a diary again?" Seeing that the jailer ignored him, a guy started to cause trouble for Claude.

Claude ignored him and continued: "What's the use of writing this? Maybe your hometown has been occupied by the Freedom Blade and everyone has been killed.

"Asshole, what did you say!"

Claude, who felt the inner turmoil in his heart, immediately pounced on the mean-mouthed guy. .

The surrounding prisoners screamed strangely and surrounded the two men wrestling on the dirty ground.

Soon, the guards who arrived forced the two men to separate.

The prisoners who were originally eager to give it a try regained their composure when they saw the mage following them.

Claude wanted to be a tough guy until the end, but looking at the young faces of the jailers, he asked in a strange way: "Do you know what happened to the Changhu Territory?"

When the jailer heard this, he showed a weird, complicated expression that made him hesitate to speak.

"What's wrong?"

Claude's heart skipped a beat.

…

Liberty City is peace-loving.

This may seem inconsistent with what it is doing, but peace is always hard and tortuous, so it is doubly precious and sweet.

The two important border towns of the Rekaner Kingdom, Xing'er City and Eze Bay, successively fell into the hands of Liberty City. The one with the slowest progress was the Scarlet Witch, who had begun to gain the most.

She is still harassing towns along the west coast and has developed many Free Blade members, but so far she has not conquered any town.

After all, there will be no ratmen emerging from the sea, there is no threat, and with abundant sea resources, the people here can still maintain a pretty good life.

So Annan asked the Red Witch to continue harassing the west coast, and occasionally do some of her old business - plundering merchant ships belonging to the Kingdom of Rekanel.

There is no rush to nibble at the kingdom. As the cold winter approaches, more and more people who can't survive will surrender to them. On the other hand, the surrender of the military minister made Annan ready to get involved in the new capital.

He couldn't wait to see that one day Clo held a meeting, and the ministers gathered together and found each other's identities: "So you are also..."

As a result, Annan's plan coincided with the Stoon ratmen in the east - Gale said they were trying to control the new capital.

Annan and the ratmen reached into the pockets of the new capital at the same time, and then touched each other's hands there.

"Is Clo really your man... rat?" Annan took the opportunity to ask it.

"I don't know." It was just a gray-haired rat, and it was a gray-haired rat sent as a spy. Many secrets were not qualified to know.

Maria didn't know that such important news was probably only qualified to be known by the rat elders of the Council of Elders.

...

The new king didn't know that they had become popular, and everyone wanted to take a bite.

King Clo just wanted to make the enemies in the territory die painfully, without leaving any alive.

In the meantime, a councillor volunteered to come to the capital and said he had an idea.

Clo received him, leaned against the throne, and stared lazily at the councillor kneeling on the steps.

"You said you have an idea?"

"Your Majesty, I have a way to annihilate the two major enemies at the same time."
