Chapter 158: Say hello to Duke Rosen for me (23)

Aaron.

Lion Castle.

The door of the King's government study was closed.

There were two people in the room.

One was Danger, and the other was a female mage.

This female mage had thick brown hair, a pair of strange deep golden eyes, and skin as white as milk. She wore a white vest and breeches inside, and a white officer windbreaker with gold edges outside. In her hand, she held an envoy's staff carved from white jade and gold.

She was charming and heroic.

In addition, you could clearly feel the strange power that was faintly surging in her body.

She just stood there, and the study room, which was originally a little dim, gave people a very bright and cheerful feeling.

"Ms. I summoned you this time to talk to you about the dispute between our two countries in the Giant Fortress."

Danger said so.

The woman called Irene fiddled with the staff in her hand with her fingers deftly, a little carelessly.

"Your Majesty, I think there is nothing to talk about before the situation on the battlefield is clear."

Her attitude was a bit rude. If it was any other kingdom's envoy, Danger would be furious, but not this person.

She came from the Glorious Empire, and she was also a master of magic at the peak of the fourth ring. She was also a member of the royal family and the cousin of Queen Zhuoya.

She was qualified to speak like this.

Danger pointed at a scroll on the table: "Ms. Irene, maybe you should take a look at the contents of this document."

Ms. Irene pointed at the scroll, observed it carefully, and smiled: "Technical data of the rotary leaf aircraft. Hehe~ Your Majesty, your gift is not light."

The so-called rotary leaf aircraft was originally inspired by fallen leaves.

Some mages found that fallen leaves of certain shapes would naturally rotate when falling, and the falling trajectory of such rotating leaves would be particularly stable.

So, some mages tried to make the leaves rotate in the opposite direction. As a result, leaves of certain shapes could actually follow the falling trajectory and fly back to the sky.

And the trajectory is still very stable.

Based on this, a new idea of ​​flying magic tools was formed.

And flying in the sky for a long time like a bird is a key breakthrough project for all countries.

Because any battlefield commander with a normal mind knows the huge role of flying troops on the battlefield.

Reconnaissance, supply delivery, high-speed assault and decapitation, etc., are simply a universal military force.

In the field of rotary blade aircraft, Aaron has a very deep research. Although he may not be ahead of the Glorious Empire, he can make up for his shortcomings by learning from each other's strengths, which is enough to greatly accelerate the progress of the Glorious Empire in rotary blade aircraft.

Of course, the scroll only records the technical introduction. If you want to get the real thing, you have to meet King Aaron's conditions.

"What does your majesty want to exchange for this information?"

Danger said: "In exchange for a year of peace in the Giant Fortress."

"Your majesty has a really big appetite. This little thing is not enough."

Danger smiled faintly.

"The Holy Elf Empire is also putting a lot of pressure on Her Majesty the Queen. The Elf Empire is in its heyday and will definitely move east again."

"If Her Majesty the Queen can agree to my conditions now, then one day in the future, if Her Majesty needs it, I, Aaron, can also provide Her Majesty with some assistance from behind, instead of stabbing her with a dagger."

This immediately made Irene put away her careless expression: "Your Majesty Danger, you know a lot."

Just as she was about to say it, the study door was knocked, with a frequency of three knocks and one light knock, indicating that there was a very urgent situation.

"Come in!"

The door opened, and Weilan's telepathic mage hurried in, first glanced at Ms. Irene, and immediately showed some hesitation on his face.

Irene immediately said: "Then I will withdraw first."

Danger thought about it and felt that he had to show his sincerity, so he said: "No need, Ms. Irene, you must know this."

"Sarant, just say it directly."

In this case, Ms. Irene walked to the wall and became an audience.

The telepathic mage Salant immediately reported: "Your Majesty, Weilan is in an emergency."

Danger frowned: "Speak."

"In the cotton-rich Oran County located at Cape Hope, there was a mutiny in the army. A large number of middle and lower-level soldiers rushed into the castle of Count Riat and killed the whole family of the Count, even the baby in the cradle!"

Danger's hands shook violently when he heard it: "A rebellion broke out so soon?!"

Chaos means the collapse of social order, which will naturally give rise to various illegal local armed forces, and the emergence of rebels is inevitable.

But the speed is too fast, right?

At this time, it has only been seven days since Prince Kao entered the Dawn City!

"What's going on?"

"Because the Baron of the White Sturgeon Island issued a document called the "Notice of Transfer of Debts of the Civilians of Weilan."

"The notice said that since Duke Reid ignored the serious dereliction of duty of the Dawn Bank, took the initiative to flee the Dawn Castle, and completely abandoned the obligations of the Duke of Dawn, he was deemed to have automatically given up his dukedom."

Hearing this, Danger wanted to drag Reid out of the Red Castle and chop him into a paste.

"The notice also said that the Earl of Southern County ignored the legitimate interests of the citizens of Weilan, enclosed land and exploited the citizens for a long time, and completely failed to fulfill the lord's obligation to protect the people, so he was deemed to be an illegal lord."

"The notice sentenced the Earl of Southern County guilty, and anyone could execute the Earl. It also announced the confiscation of the Earl's property, and his property will be shared by all Weilan citizens."

Danger's eyelids jumped: "Baron said so, those people really listen to him?"

Why does a baron from an island judge the earl? !

Even if he married the Princess of Dawn, he was still a baron, and his territory was still just a small white sturgeon island!

The messenger mage sighed.

"The last item of the announcement is that all the Dawn Bank deposit certificates in the hands of Weilan citizens are recognized as valid, including the fake certificates forged by the Levender Royal Family."

"The Baron of the White Sturgeon Island promised to open the Weilan Citizen Bank, which will provide deposit exchange services for Weilan citizens on behalf of the Dawn Bank. At the same time, the bank will collect debts from the Levender Royal Family on behalf of Weilan citizens."

Danger's hands trembled a little when he heard it, and he looked unbelievable:

"This money is at least 30 million Oggs. Why can a small baron like him exchange it?"

"Why can he confiscate the earl's property with just one announcement? Why does he dare to collect debts from the Levender Royal Family?"

Ms. Irene on the side was also curious.

She knew that Weilan was in a mess recently, and there was a little baron who was very jumpy, but she didn't expect that he would jump to such an extent that he even dared to destroy the Earl's family.

This seemed to be more chaotic than usual, and this little baron seemed to be more than an ordinary person.

The messenger mage whispered: "It's probably because the Baron of the White Sturgeon Island showed a terrifying new weapon!"

Without waiting for the king to ask, he began to describe the new weapon.

"It is a flying magic weapon that flies very fast and is also very huge."

"It is obviously made of metal, but it flies across the sky like lightning. Compared with it, the fastest galloping horse is as slow as a snail."

"This flying magic weapon started from the White Sturgeon Island and flew a whole circle around the giant island of Weilan!"

"The earls wanted to attack the magic weapon, but this magic weapon flew very high, its defense was also very amazing, and its attack power was also very terrifying."

"It carries a very powerful spiritual magic weapon. With a dive, thousands of soldiers guarding the earl's castle either fainted or ran around like frightened sheep."

'Click~~'

Danger's pen fell directly onto the table because he didn't hold it firmly.

"Such a powerful flying magic weapon?"

He looked at Ms. Irene: "Madam, you didn't support it, did you?"

As a result, he saw that the other party was also shocked.

Irene was really shocked. Although they also had flying magic weapons in their country, they were far less powerful than the communication wizard described.

Not so fast, nor any spiritual instruments that can deal with thousands of soldiers, and no long-distance sailing capability to bypass the giant island of Weilan.

This is at least a 2,000-kilometer voyage!

As she listened to the news, she suddenly felt that the baron was a little scary!

The messenger mage didn't know what the king was thinking, and he whispered:

"In short, now the absolute authority of the Baron of the White Sturgeon Island is generally recognized in the south of Weilan, and he is regarded as the Lord of Weilan!"

Danger was shocked again: "Lord of Weilan? Shouldn't the Lord of Weilan be Princess Chenxi?"

The messenger mage smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, the recognition of the Baron by the people of Weilan is obviously higher than that of Princess Chenxi. Obviously, this is to prepare for the Baron to ascend the throne."

Danger's heart tightened when he heard this, and he carefully recalled the information he had heard about the Baron of the White Sturgeon Island during this period, and gradually saw the other party's action trajectory in his heart.

He finally understood: "Since the pearl ornaments four months ago, he has been plotting to seize Weilan!"

From then on, he must have calculated everything that came next and moved forward step by step, and Reid, this waste, was his prey.

This waste was like a snail without eyes and ears, falling into the trap set for him little by little, and even his every reaction was predicted by the other party, and then the best response strategy was made.

"Debt transfer announcement~~~Haha~~~Use the earl's money to fill the hole of Dawn Bank, haha~~What a good plan!"

The money of the Earl of the South is actually Aaron's, that is, using Aaron's money to be a good person!

With the last one as a backup, there is of course no resistance to everything in front.

In other words, Oran County is the first earl to be killed, but not the last one.

The earl lords in the south of Weilan are afraid that they will all be killed!

These lords are Aaron's carefully trained hounds. It's a pity to be eliminated like this. Danger wants to rescue them.

Whether the people can be rescued or not is another matter, but the money must be rescued!

But the 200-kilometer strait became a natural barrier.

The opponent's actions were too fast. By the time Aaron's army arrived, it would be too late.

But no matter what, he had to send troops to rescue.

Save as many as possible.

But his thoughts were still turning, and new information from Weilan arrived, but it was a new telepathic mage.

Because of Weilan's complicated situation, five telepathic lines have been opened.

The telepathic mage said: "Your Majesty, the earls of the fifteen counties and fourteen counties in the south, as well as 32 ancient nobles are all gone."

Danger almost jumped up when he heard it: "What?!"

This action is too fast!

Ms. Irene was also shocked and straightened her back, her deep golden eyes widened.

Danger even choked on his own saliva and coughed awkwardly: "Mage, you better not have sent the wrong message!"

The new messenger mage sighed: "Your Majesty, I have confirmed it three times and it is not wrong. Not a single earl survived. All were killed, including the youngest child."

"The same is true for the 32 great nobles, the largest of which is the Shahram family of Dawn City."

"The Shahram family? The one that held the Victory Chess Tournament? He's finished too?"

"Yes, it's finished, the whole family is finished."

"Master Shahram's body was hung on a street lamp by the Glory Square. His clothes were gone, his body was covered with wounds, and even his toys were cut off. He suffered great humiliation before his death."

Danger's hands were shaking. For some reason, he was shocked and envious.

'What a cruel baron~ What a great method! '

He always wanted to do this, but he didn't dare to do it, because once he took this action, his body would be hung on a street lamp like Shahram the next day.

After envy came fear.

"Veland is completely out of control, and there is no chance to get it back, unless... the baron dies."

Danger wanted to send an assassination team, but gave up the idea immediately.

Not because he was afraid of the blessing of the sage Levin, but because he was afraid of the baron himself.

The person who could predict everything, finally launched like thunder and lightning, and finally successfully seized Vilan must also be on guard against his assassination.

The assassination will most likely not succeed, and will bring the relationship between the two sides to a dead end.

As for the terrible flying magic weapon, it must be carefully investigated and a response strategy must be made.

Otherwise, even sleeping will not be peaceful.

After three minutes of silence, Danger called his internal affairs chief again: "Alai!"

Alai came in and called out, "My respected lion king."

"Go and call Master Schmidt over."

Turning to Ms. Irene, he said, "Madam, I think you must have a lot of news to send back to the country, right?"

Ms. Irene nodded: "Yes."

She turned and left.

Soon, Master Schmidt came.

Danger issued a secret order.

"Go to the Red Castle, tie up Reid, and personally send him to the White Sturgeon Island, to Baron Rosen, and say that it is my apology gift to him."

Master Schmidt was stunned: "Reid? Is it Duke of Dawn Reid?"

"Yes."

"But why apologize to the baron, Your Majesty?"

"Apologize for coveting his wife."

"Your Majesty?!"

Schmidt suspected that he had heard it wrong.

Tall and strong, Danger propped his hands on the desk, like a defeated lion.

"Go ahead, Schmidt, and say hello to Rosen for me. No, I should say, say hello to Duke Rosen for me."
