"It's agreed, don't go back on it." Lilinu showed her signature stiff smile and squeezed one of Richard's fingers tightly, "Little Tina is the future Duke of Midden, and Eve is the leader of the Morning Church. The Great Saint, with the help of Akka and Nasha in the dungeon, Midden Territory is much stronger than the capital no matter what."
Richard agreed: "Of course, Midden Territory is indeed a good place, and Nunalia is indeed a good wife and the boss. But I am still worried about the fact that Ellie can be promoted to a high-ranking legend. She clearly understands It’s messed up every day, and they never take care of me.”
"After all, Teacher Ai Li is hot on the outside and cold on the inside. At least compared to other students, she has taken extra care of you." Lilinu continued to pull Richard towards the deepest part of the cemetery, "And Teacher Ai Li is also secretly Helped you a lot.”
Richard retorted: "When I was wanted by the entire empire, she hid in the mage tower and pretended not to notice."
"That's because she was held down by the dean, including my mentor Lilian." Lilianu tried hard to explain, "You also know the dean's strength. They really couldn't move at that time. Instructor Ai Li even directly talked to The dean got into a fight, but it didn’t happen.”
Richard was a little shocked and said, "What? This is the first time I've heard of this."
"Because it's too embarrassing, Teacher Ai Li didn't let me say it. Don't say it was me who said it." Lilinu whispered, "And later on, your staff, crystal dragon, etc., in fact, It’s all arranged by Teacher Ai Li, otherwise you wouldn’t be able to be promoted to a half-step legend so quickly.”
"It seems that she is still a human being." Richard said firmly, "But compared to me, this Lily may not directly regard you as her own daughter."
"Richard, don't be angry." Lili Nu comforted her in a low voice, "Although what you said may be right, it doesn't matter, what's mine is yours, there is no difference. When the time comes, we will find a way to trap the two mentors together with the tower. , let them call you City Lord, okay?"
Richard thought about the scene of Aili leaning under him and pleading, and immediately felt a little satisfied. With a sullen face, he reluctantly softened: "This is feasible, but her research funds must be specially approved by me, and Aili won't give it to me. Don’t expect to get anything if you stand and toast first. This is the excellent culture of our dungeon and we must adhere to it!”
Lilinu couldn't bear to interrupt Richard's unrealistic fantasy. She murmured in a voice that only she could hear: "I just hope she won't beat you then. It's wrong to bully the master and destroy the ancestor. You can't." Can’t beat Ellie at all.”
Richard asked: "But how did you know this news? I heard that the capital of Silver Moon has completely cut off external contact."
Lilinu took out a newspaper with the emperor's seal on it: "There is no complete break. Every once in a while, the royal family will release some recent news, such as condemning Nunalia, blaming Nunalia, blaming Nunally Ya and stuff like that, and some other stuff.”
Richard took the newspaper, casually scanned the important information on it, and complained: "Every once in a while, in the name of the emperor? This feeling is like emphasizing that the emperor is healthy and well, and he has a guilty conscience."
Richard quickly flipped through the six-page newspaper before remembering to glance at the headline information. There was a sentence written in red letters in the largest font on the white paper:
The emperor proposes to Ellie.
Oh, it's just a simple political marriage, nothing strange.
Richard calmly turned the page, and then...
He was stunned for a moment, then scratched his head and pinched Lilinu's cold face. He didn't let go until she cried out in pain.
Richard turned the newspaper back, rubbed his eyes, and muttered: "Impossible, did I wake up violently? No, I have to go back and take a nap."
"You read that right, it's true." Lilinu broke Richard's fantasy, "The queen died of illness a few years ago, so the emperor can find a new queen."
Richard's face immediately brightened, and he mocked: "Old cow eating young grass? This old guy is so shameless. My mentor must be going crazy now."
Lilinu reminded in a low voice: "Actually...according to her age, Teacher Aili can be the emperor's grandma."
Richard glared at Lilinu who was causing trouble, pinched her ears and said, "That's an attempt to drive a big cart with a small horse."
Lilinu retorted aggrievedly and simply: "Aren't you the same? Eve, Nashanaya, Nanalia, Linda, which one is not older than you."
Richard said helplessly: "Who told you this? Why did you learn so badly?"
Lilinu betrayed her teammates without hesitation and said: "Naya, Aka, and Momo, they have concluded that you are a wife pervert."
Richard silently held a grudge and said, "I'll settle the score with them later. Don't listen to their nonsense in the future. Lily, you know, you have always believed in me and my noble character."
Lilinu said seriously: "Of course, for example, you always secretly stared at the Silver Moon Queen and asked Linda to dress up as the queen. It must be to penetrate into the enemy's interior, and it was definitely not to like married women. I believe you, Li Check!"
Richard was speechless for a while. He could no longer tell whether Lili Nu was sincere or was being arrogant.
But looking at Lili Nu's sincere eyes, Richard chose to believe Lili Nu.
Chapter 239 The Silver Moon Battle Royale is about to begin
Lilinu asked curiously: "Richard, aren't you curious about what Teacher Ai Li thinks?"
Richard said without any worry: "Did that bastard woman really agree?"
Richard knew his mentor's temperament.
Although Ellie looks like a smart, intelligent and somewhat offline female mage, she is actually an iceberg that no one can get close to.
Even Richard, the direct disciple, in Ellie's eyes, is more of just a tool for the inheritance faction.
Her contribution and assistance to Richard were nothing but corresponding judgments made under absolute rationality.
If Richard loses the qualification to inherit the faction one day, then Ellie may not be able to smile and chatter while watching Richard being chased to death and never help.
After all, Ai Li is a true and absolute neutral, and Richard never counts on her.
Even Richard has never been afraid to speculate with the greatest malice on what kind of psychological trauma Ellie has experienced that has caused her to feel so depressed that she is hot on the outside and cold on the inside.
Lilinu pointed to a few lines in the newspaper and reminded: "The newspaper said that it is up to the disciple Richard to decide whether he agrees or not, and Teacher Ai Li will respond personally."
"Ah, me?" Richard felt a headache, and his intuition told him that this was definitely not a good thing. "What does this bastard woman want to do?"
Lilinu speculated: "Maybe it has other meanings. After all, these are the only newspapers that can be circulated in the capital now, and even high-ranking legends are trapped in them."
Richard stared at every word in the newspaper, but couldn't see any clues.
But he could almost understand that his mentor might be using this ridiculous way to remind him to stay away from the capital.
The capital may have really become an extremely dangerous powder keg, and even Ellie can't protect herself.
Otherwise, given her temperament, she would not have responded to such an outrageous answer, nor would she have been so restrained and continued to stay in the capital to completely cut off contact with Richard. Instead, she would have gone directly to the palace and frightened the imperial guards in the palace.
But the emperor finally proposed to Ellie through official and formal channels.
At least in the Silver Moon Empire, the emperor is supreme in a sense. Ellie probably has a headache now.
Once a teacher, always a mother, this kind of feeling like it's going to rain and your mother is getting married is very unpleasant and terrible.
It's always been Richard who doesn't treat others, so how can other people have their own reasons?
At this moment, Richard felt that he could finally understand how Clintina felt when she saw him and Nunalia flirting.
Richard asked: "Lilinu, I remember you can directly summon two mentors?"
Lilinu shook his head and said: "It can't be done now. The contact between me and the two mentors was completely cut off a month ago. Now not even a fly can fly out of the capital, and it can only enter or leave."
Because the capital has completely lost contact with the outside world, the already tense Silver Moon region is becoming more and more like a powder keg ready to explode.
Most residents of Silverymoon feel like headless flies, unable to see the future direction of the Empire.
However, due to the invasion of the orcs and the return of the Nordland demons to the north, the Midden Territory, which was most qualified to launch a coup, had nothing to do, and the speculators could only temporarily stop their activities and wait for the opportunity.
The civil strife in Silver Moon, which should have erupted long ago, has been delayed again and again by these successive incidents. It is difficult for people not to guess whether there is a secret struggle among the gods.
Richard couldn't predict such a trend. Now he only needed to assist Nanalia in stabilizing the situation in Midden Territory, so that he could at least be invincible.
It can only be said that fortunately Nunalia used some means to steal the northern authority of the Mystic Lock. In addition, the legion of the Noon Mountain Fortress was completely taken over by the Duke's Palace. At least the two biggest weapons used by the Emperor to check the Midden Territory have been be cracked.
In the current situation, even if Nunalia does not launch a war against the royal family, she can simply ignore the royal family and establish her own principality with the help of the Mystery Chain and a powerful army, and with strong economic support.
In general, although Middenland is isolated from the northernmost frontier of the empire, it has also created isolationism among the residents here.
Midden people often only know about Nanalia and the Church of the Dawn, but have never heard of the Silver Moon Emperor and the Church of the Moon.
Generally speaking, the state of Middenland is not that bad, but the situation in other provinces is different.
In order to cope with the ensuing civil strife, some provinces whose economic conditions were not very good almost made crazy loans to several large chambers of commerce and the Church of the Goddess of Wealth in the Silver Moon Empire to expand their armies.
At present, the Midden Territory has not launched the first shot of the coup. The excessive military spending in other provinces will undoubtedly make the already bad economy worse, and the purpose of using war to support war cannot be achieved at all.
The Grand Dukes of other provinces are not like Nunalia, who is cruel and dictatorial but has a masterful governance. In just ten years, they can build up the richest empire in the empire in the northern frontier of ice and snow.
As hereditary princes for thousands of years, their long-term power has long paralyzed their nerves and responsibilities.
All foreign enemies were blocked by the Midden Territory. The excessive comfort allowed the grand dukes to sit back and relax in their own provinces, plunder wealth and indulge in nepotism.
Although the Silver Moon Empire is rich, corruption and embezzlement have long been a stubborn disease that is difficult to cure. The citizens of some provinces have long been gnashing their teeth in hatred for their Grand Duke.
Under the strict mandatory conscription order, these newly recruited soldiers may not be able to guarantee absolute loyalty.
Once such sentiments spread to the army, small rebellions will be staged secretly all the time.
Therefore, the other princes can't wait any longer. If this continues, the unruly people in their own territories will most likely cause greater riots with the support of some evil forces.
This is already the eve of the storm, and the contradiction has been intensified to the point of no longer possible.
The Midden Territory has been slow to move due to various incidents. Those grand dukes who wanted to take sides based on the situation realized that they might really have to take the lead in launching the first military coup against the royal family.
Now is their last time.
Spies and lobbyists, under the orders of various archdukes, traveled extensively throughout the provinces of Silvermoon and even among foreign forces.
Discords among foreign teachers continue to occur in the dark, and secret alliances and tacit backstabbing are commonplace.
Countless envoys entered the Midden Territory.
They tried to ask for an audience with Nanalia and used their flexible negotiation skills to persuade the Midenland to lead a rebellion, but they were turned away without even seeing anyone.
Now, for the other Grand Dukes, not only the Silver Moon capital of Delran has become a terrifying black box of information, but even the Duke's Palace in Middenland seems to be becoming more and more mysterious, as if something disturbing is brewing. conspiracy.
But in the end everything may detonate at a certain key point in the future - once the orcs' attack slows down and reaches a stalemate, then no matter what, even the gods will not be able to stop this civil war that has been delayed for too long.
At that time, the entire Silver Moon Empire will start a battle royale mode that includes all provinces, and countless hidden forces will be brought to light, causing a storm.
No one can guarantee that he will be the ultimate winner.
Chapter 2: The Lich King’s Temple in Lilinu
Lilinu took Richard to the deepest part of the cemetery, where the aura of the dead was so strong that it could almost be seen with the naked eye.
Once the living people under the legend step into it, they may be transformed into undead creatures in an instant.
In the deepest part of the cemetery, under the transformation of Lilinu, a huge palace appeared out of thin air.
The palace is made of dark stone walls, with dark red blood carving a powerful and mysterious magic circle on them.
Sheep-headed skeletons filled every visible field of view. The palace gates opened with the arrival of Lilinu. A throne made of bones and iron stone was placed at the top, which seemed to symbolize the most absolute authority of the Necromancer. and majesty.
Bloody stone platforms stood on both sides in front of the throne, which seemed to represent the Necromancer's most valued undead servants.
There are no low-level undead in the deepest part of the cemetery, replaced by the "descendants" carefully crafted by Lilinu.
Before Richard took over this underground city, most of the buildings in the city had completely lost their working capabilities, but only the cemeteries of undead creatures were largely preserved due to their special characteristics of immortality.
After Lilinu took over the cemetery, the rich undead aura brought by the legendary necromancer reawakened these terrifying high-level undead.
They rekindled the cold undead fire with hatred, put on armor, raised their swords, and after a brief period of confusion, they pledged allegiance to their new master and master, Lilinu, the descendant of the Lich King.
Lilinu, who has the bloodline of the Lich King, can almost easily absorb any legendary undead creature without an owner. Her existence is the object of fanatic pursuit by the undead creatures.
Thanks to the pyramid-like dictatorial system of undead creatures, the cemetery is less like a city and more like an insect nest and an individual.
As the King of the Undead, Lilinu assumed the role of the brain. Although she had never learned how to run a full-fledged cemetery, as a genius, this was not difficult.
Therefore, under the wisdom of Lilinu, the well-preserved necromantic buildings started to operate again without any hindrance under the operation of the remaining necromantic creatures.
