Starting from the Dragon Tribe

Seven days later, the royal capital.

Lu Chen was riding on Kalain's horse. As soon as he passed through the gate of the royal city, the message was quickly sent to the palace.

King Kusla was in the harem at this time. After receiving the news in the magic crystal, his expression was uncertain.

During this period, his mood changed greatly. First, he thought that Princess Ruth had given him a good plan, and he felt quite happy.

But when he heard that the orcs suddenly gave an ultimatum and were preparing to attack the city immediately, his heart was in his throat again.

Even when the tea cup in my hand fell to the ground, I didn't notice it.

He never expected that the orcs would fight at will, and the defenders of the Western Region would definitely not be able to withstand it.

During that period, he was extremely conflicted, frightened and frightened. He was afraid that the orc army would break through the Sunset Pass and march straight into it. He was afraid that the orc army would bloodbath the Western Territory and bear eternal infamy.

He threw countless things in the palace and kept cursing the Orc King. He did delay and struggle for a while, but can you be more patient?

If things go bad, wouldn't it be all my responsibility?

Originally, he wanted to use this incident to suppress his brother's reputation, but when he heard that the orcs were about to attack the city, he prayed that his brother would arrive in time.

But there are only three days before Duke Godzilla sets off. According to the itinerary, it will take another two days for him to arrive at the earliest. How can he make it in time?

And if he were the elder brother, he would just not go there and let himself, the king, take the blame.

His original sinister thoughts turned into prayers. When he heard that his brother had arrived at the last moment, he slumped on the throne.

He finally escaped. If he wanted food, he needed food. Just give it. Anyway, he could blame Duke Godzilla who was negotiating afterwards.

His fear turned into ecstasy. This time, his brother not only helped him solve the crisis, but also fell into a trap.

He had thought up the propaganda plan, and he focused on the two points of being bloodless and traitorous, which would definitely make it impossible for the other party to stand up again.

He has already made preparations for the next ten years. He will intensify his inspections of the Great Wall, be ruthless, and fight a few battles with the army in the abyss, proving to the subjects of the empire that he is the best son of King Yongzhan, undisputed. The human king.

As for my brother, let him sit on the bench and watch his own performance.

Originally...he thought so, and even in a happy mood, he went to favor Princess Ruth several times that night.

But the next day, when he received the news that the orcs had withdrawn their troops, but that the empire had not paid the price and did not have to hand over a penny of food, he was a little stunned.

When Prime Minister Tristin reported the news, his face was filled with joy, but King Kusla seemed to have heard a bolt from the blue.

Although he didn’t know how his brother did it, it was undoubtedly a good thing for the empire. Logically speaking, he should express his happiness, so he could only show an ugly smile in front of Tristin.

He never expected that this time his brother would not only arrive at the last minute to turn the tide, but even achieve an almost impossible and perfect negotiation result.

It is conceivable that when this incident spreads, not only the people in the Western Region but also the whole country will look askance.

The people's speech is forbidden, and soon everyone will know that the once wise and mighty Imperial Duke is back.

In a depressed mood, he rushed back to the harem and treated Princess Ruth several times with extremely cruel methods.

At this time, he was waving the riding crop in his hand and whipping his most beloved concubine. Listening to her wailing, the anger in his heart dissipated a little.

"Your Majesty, Ruth realizes her mistake~ah——"

The egret was lying on the bed, crowing softly, but from an angle that King Kusla could not see, its expression was cold and its eyes were full of murderous intent.

You don't have much time, just wait.

The current situation is indeed beyond everyone's expectations. Even the leader Qianji said that he had miscalculated. They wanted to use this matter to let Ruth win the favor of King Kusla and implicitly give Godzilla Duke chance.

But they didn't expect that the other party could actually negotiate like this, without paying a penny of food!

That's a bit much, and even if Duke Godzilla makes a series of surprise moves in the next period of time, he may not be able to shake the throne.

This is not what the Tianji Adventure Group wants to see. After all, the second link of their main mission has not yet been completed. If the kingdom collapses during this period, it will be all over.

So even though Ruth was very angry at this time, she still had to be patient, and they had to wait for these two weeks to pass.

During this period of time, not only could she not show any abnormality, but she also had to do her best to help King Kusla stabilize the situation.

After King Kusla shivered for a while, he felt calm inside. He stroked his white back full of scars and felt a little distressed again.

"Get up, I thought about it, I can't blame you for this."

King Kusla perfectly interpreted what it means to be the face-changing king. He arranged his clothes, sat on the coffee table nearby, and took a sip of tea. He always felt that the taste was a little strange.

"Ruth understands the depression in Wang's heart. Don't let your anger break your body. It is Ruth's honor to be able to vent it on Ruth."

Lu Eun is worthy of being a veteran in the space. In terms of acting skills, he is definitely at the level of an Oscar-winning actress. Although he is full of anger and murderous intent in his heart, his smile is just pitiful. He looks like he is willing to do anything for the king.

King Kusla was very moved and felt a little guilty in his heart. He stepped forward and hugged Heron, who was feeling sick in his heart. "Come and tell me, what do you think of my brother's return to the capital?"

He figured out that there was nothing wrong with Heron's plan, rather it was a nearly perfect plan. However, no one could guess the movements of the Orc King, let alone what kind of enchanting soup his cunning brother had poured into the Orc King.

His princess was not only beautiful and well-behaved, but also the most intelligent, but he had not noticed it very much before.

The other party may not understand how to govern a country, but he seems to be very good at this kind of underhanded play. He wants to hear if Princess Ruth has any good suggestions now.

Of course, this time he will think carefully and discuss it with the Prime Minister before making a decision.

Heron calmed down and pretended to be scared, "Ruth...don't dare to say nonsense."

"It's okay, I'll just refer to it."

King Kusla waved his hand, meaning that he would not pursue it further.

Heron cursed in his heart, "Damn it, you dog emperor said the same thing last time!"

But she still said: "Ruth heard that the Warcraft Mountains in the south have been uneasy recently. It seems that the Moon Wolf Clan has been born. The team responsible for collecting the mineral veins is very distressed and has suffered many casualties."

King Kusla pondered slightly, "It is true, but what does this have to do with my brother?"

"This time the Duke's achievements are seen by the subjects of the empire. If the king still puts him aside, I'm afraid someone will talk about it. Why don't we give him a job and stabilize him first. Anyway, mining has nothing to do with the army. .”

Heron suggested that two explorers from their Tianji Adventure Group were mining in the Warcraft Mountains.

Mining is not a shameful thing. This task is simple and can be stably exchanged for origin coins. Usually after entering the world, if there are some specialty materials in the world, they will send the weakest people in the group to take charge.

On the one hand, sometimes weaker explorers cannot keep up with dangerous combat situations, and on the other hand, this is also to protect the bottom line.

Even if the adventure group fails in the mission world, they will not gain nothing when they return to space.

Many large adventure groups are doing this. Effective risk management can make an adventure group go further.

The recent birth of the Lunar Wolf Clan in the Warcraft Mountains has indeed brought a lot of trouble to space explorers.

The individual strength of the Moon Wolf Clan is not weak. They are second only to the Dragon Clan in Warcraft. They are the "nobles" in Warcraft.

At the same time, they are numerous and good at collective fighting. They were once the strongest overlord clan in the Warcraft Mountains.

But it is said that ten thousand years ago, when the gods were still alive, the Moon Wolf tribe offended the Moon God and was sealed in a different space in the Warcraft Mountains. Unless three conditions are met, they will never be able to return to the Aika continent.

Facts have proved that there is no forever in the world, and even the seals set by the so-called "gods" will be loosened one day.

Recently, some Moonwolves have appeared in the Warcraft Mountains. Although the number is not very large, it shows that they have found a way to come out.

The Moonwolves are proud by nature and are very aggressive in their attacks. When they see humans in the Warcraft Mountains, they will naturally attack.

In the past few days, even two explorers have died at the hands of the Moon Wolf Clan.

After all, most of the explorers who are willing to mine are third-level explorers or very good fourth-level explorers.

King Kusla frowned and thought: "But the people in the capital are watching now. He has just made a great contribution. Isn't there something wrong with this?"

He is not without political acumen. He sent Duke Godzilla to the Warcraft Mountains to assist in mining. At worst, he was asked to be a supervisor or a bodyguard. Those were all jobs done by servants.

Even a naive person can see that this assignment is humiliating.

Heron was annoyed, thinking that you really want to be both a leader and an independent person, so it's weird that you can beat your brother!

She calmed down and remembered Qianji's various "points" to her yesterday, and said: "There is another way to deal with it. The king should know the trial ceremony of the Moon Wolf clan, right?"

King Kusla's eyes lit up, "My beloved concubine, what do you mean?"

He had read the trial rituals of the Moon Wolf Clan in miscellaneous books when he was a child. The Moon God was not merciless to the Warcraft race that had followed him, and he still gave a glimmer of hope for the seal.

The first two of those three conditions are that the bloody moon descends on Aika, and the forest of life closes.

Originally, the condition of the Moon God seemed inexplicable and impossible, because the blood moon had never appeared on the Aika continent in ancient times, and the elves also loved to travel on the continent.

But then the abyss appeared, and there would be a blood moon hanging high for a few days every month. The elves also closed the Ahir Forest due to war and some special reasons.

There was a gap in the history of the Aika continent. The theory of gods was regarded as empty talk, a religious thing fabricated by rulers of various races in order to facilitate the management of their subjects.

But in stories related to the moon god, these items are more like prophecies than conditions.

That god had anticipated the invasion of the Abyss a long time ago, and even saw the closure of the Aisir Forest.

As for the third condition, it is for someone to pass the test set by him in the Moon Wolf Clan, a test that is theoretically impossible to complete.

After passing the trial, the seal of the Moon Wolf clan will be completely lifted, and they will return to the continent of Aika, and at the same time, they will follow the person who passed the trial.

"Let's see if Your Majesty... still has feelings for his brother."

Heron's smile was subtle, but the meaning was obvious.

King Kusla's expression changed, "Let him participate in the trial? In the name of the empire?"

It was difficult for him to make a judgment on this matter. As a king, of course he didn't think about his brother all day long, or he came to the harem to sow seeds.

After the incident in the Warcraft Mountains, he also sent several confidants from the church to try it out. After all, the Moon Wolf Clan was very strong. If they could recover, they could form the strongest cavalry regiment in the empire.

But no one from the church came back alive, and they were all top-notch masters.

Yesterday, he went to see the Pope. His Majesty the Pope said that it was impossible to pass, and it had nothing to do with how strong your fighting spirit magic was. He told him not to send anyone to try again, as he would just die in vain.

He was very torn about Ruth's proposal, or in other words, he was resistant in his heart.

On the one hand, he actually doesn't want to kill Duke Godzilla just like that. What he wants is not that the other person dies, but that he wants the other person alive and the feeling that he is on top of the other person.

On the other hand, what if...brother succeeds?

Although His Majesty the Pope said that, just like what happened to the Orcs this time, who would have thought that my brother would let the Orcs retreat without spending a single soldier, paying a single penny or paying for food?

If he succeeds, his reputation will continue to increase. The problem is that the support of the Moon Wolf clan is equivalent to an army, which is not what he wants.

"It is an honorable thing to go to the trial for the empire. If the Duke succeeds, it will be a good thing for the empire. If he fails, then the king will also have a serious problem."

Lu Lu admonished, in fact, Tianji really didn’t want to use this plan.

Because there is a 99% chance that Duke Godzilla will die after going there, which is not in line with their subsequent planned route.

But Tianji felt uneasy because he couldn't figure out why the orcs retreated. He was afraid that Duke Godzilla had reached some terrible deal with the orcs, which would cause the second part of their main mission to fail.

From the perspective of their interests, it is best to get Duke Godzilla out first. Even if Duke Godzilla can succeed, it will take a lot of time to conduct trials and help explorers mine. Waiting for him to return to their main mission It's done, and you can abandon your pig teammates when the time comes.

If Duke Godzilla fails, the empire will be stable. Even if King Kuzilla is stupid, he will still have the thickest legs. They can just continue hugging each other and it will be over.

"No, let's talk about it in a few days."

King Kusla shook his head and said that the princess's suggestion was not in his interest at all. If it failed, his brother would die directly. If it succeeded, he would be extremely embarrassed.

However, regarding the matter of going to the Warcraft Mountains to supervise the work, he felt that there were other explanations and room for maneuver.

He was going to think about it for a few days before talking.

Heron looked at King Kusla leaving the room and snorted coldly, "Damn procrastination!"
