Carry the Ring of Elden with you

Then the corner of Roland's mouth twitched: "It can't be the red wolf of Radagan, okay, I admit that this thing is indeed quite advanced."

[Advanced elite unit: Night Cavalry (the number of summons is temporarily limited to 4, 1 from Nimgofu, 1 from Weeping Peninsula, and 2 from Lienia), with the arrival of the 'Ominous Demon Ghost' Malkit , his followers can naturally respond to your call.They are the most outstanding warriors, the gods of death for all warriors, knights, and heroes. 】

"Night Cavalry!?" Roland suddenly sat up straight, causing Melina, who was sitting next to him, to cast a concerned look.

Roland smiled at her, indicating that he was fine, and then continued to communicate with the system: "Why are you so generous all of a sudden? It caught me off guard."

【Generous?This system has never been generous. Unlocking the 'Night Cavalry' for you shows that you need to use them. ] The system replied very seriously: [It seems that the host has summoned a lot of heroic units recently. This system can understand your ambition.But it needs to be reminded that even so, you are still in the early stages of building a country, and you are still a long way from being truly invincible.Please remember not to get carried away. 】

Roland quickly responded: "My, my, what you taught me is that my mentality is indeed a bit wandering."

However, the Night Cavalry was finally unlocked, and Roland was naturally impressed by these cavalry who only appeared at night.Because the Night Riders look so similar to the Ringwraiths in Lord of the Rings.

Four Night Troopers can be of great use if ordered correctly.Roland touched his chin. If he wanted to summon it, he would definitely leave it to [Ominous Omen Demon] Malkit.

It would be better to let them deter the young men and spies who had sneaked into the Golden Dynasty after Roland founded the country.

As for the location of Stonewell City to be summoned, Neferi Lu has studied it together and placed it further south of Morn City. Theoretically, it is within the territory of the Charles Empire, but because it is close to the endless forest, it is inaccessible, not even the villages. None, it’s a completely undeveloped place.

Judging from the area of ​​​​Stonwell City, Roland conservatively estimated that it was a city that could accommodate nearly one million people.From this point of view, it is already larger than the capital of the Charles Empire and the Holy Empire of France.

The white-walled capital of Vina, the capital of Charles's empire, had nearly 60 residents.The holy city of Emerion, the capital of the Holy Empire of France, is even more terrifying and can accommodate about 80 residents.

In Roland's view, Stonewell City's ability to accommodate nearly a million people was extraordinary. It could only be said that it was worthy of being the city of the Storm King.

But this also made Roland more curious about how magnificent it would be to summon into reality the Rhea Lucalia Magic Academy in Lienia, the royal city of Rodel on the Yatan Plateau, and the city of Abbrefield where the Holy Tree is located. Spectacular views.

Roland raised his head and shouted to Melina with great pride: "Melina, summon Kenneth Hyde, and he will draft a grand message to convey the Golden Dynasty's warm invitation to all nations in the world!"

"The content of the letter reads: Our Golden Dynasty has gathered in Stonewell City and will establish a great kingdom. We invite the kings of all countries to cross the mountains and seas and come to our Stonewell City to witness the beginning of the golden age of the golden tree!"

Melina nodded with a smile. After standing up, she asked Roland: "Would you like to call Mr. Greg and Mr. Malkit here as well?"

Roland was stunned for a moment, and then nodded immediately: "Well, you are right. Call them over, and leave the aura and symbols of the demigods on the letters to be sent, so that these countries know that there are people behind the Golden Dynasty. Two demigods stood.”

In fact, there was also a [Storm King] and a quasi-king-level Bernal standing there.

Chapter 116: Five Heirs

More than half a month has passed since the siege of Pulin City.

The capital of the Holy Empire of France, the holy city of Emerion.

In the splendid palace, Emperor Latour sat expressionlessly in his study. There were no other ministers in the study at this time. Only his five direct blood relatives came here after his summons.

The eldest prince Albert, the second prince Noel, the third prince Victoria, the fourth prince Cecilia and the fifth prince Evangelion.

The five of them have been sitting in front of their unsmiling father for some time with different expressions on their faces, but the current Emperor Latour has not spoken and just silently looked through the documents on the table.

It had been a long time since their father had gathered them together so neatly, but each of them knew that their father had brought them together at this point in time not just to promote feelings.

Although the eldest prince Albert looked serious, he didn't have much worry in his heart. The generals of his own faction had recently led the army to achieve fruitful results on the battlefield against the Charles Empire, so he was not worried that he would be criticized by his father for coming today.

The second prince Noel frowned, always showing a thinking expression.The last time his father summoned him and Cecilia, because he was close to the people of the Golden Dynasty, his father appointed him as an envoy to go to the Golden Dynasty.As a result, when he tried to find Miss Feiya, she just left a letter. She had already left the capital with those followers who behaved strangely but were powerful, and they didn't know where they went.A few days later, his informant in the Charles Empire received the news that "The Golden Dynasty announced its occupation of Pulin City", which made Noel a little unsure about what this country and their leader Roland wanted to do.

He deliberately narrowed the distance with the Golden Dynasty because Noel knew the heritage and capabilities of the Holy Empire of France, and believed that it could accept and absorb the emerging power of the Golden Dynasty in an inclusive manner.Especially after seeing the small countries that had been assimilated by the Holy Empire of France in history, he had the confidence to believe that the Golden Dynasty could also become part of the integrated culture of the empire.

Noel just wanted to inject new vitality and vitality into the empire by contacting the Golden Dynasty, but he did not intend to cultivate a terrible enemy for the empire.Regarding the recent actions of the Golden Dynasty, he believed that it was necessary to re-examine this mysterious country.

Because the third prince Victoria rarely went out, her skin was sickly pale, like white jade.His figure is tall, natural and elegant.He has a handsome face and extraordinary bearing, and his appearance has a coquettish feeling because of his skin color.His eyes are deep and sharp, shining with a scorching light, and his unique temperament makes people feel unique.There was an aura of divinity exuding from his body, demonstrating his extraordinary status and otherworldly demeanor.

He has the most relaxed expression among Emperor Latour's five children. Victoria, who doesn't care about the throne at all, doesn't care what her brothers and sisters are doing.He just wants to be a drunken rich boy, and even now his thoughts have drifted to a singer he saw at the opera house last night.

Compared with Victoria's relaxed expression, the one with the worst expression can be said to be the fourth princess Cecilia.

This beautiful princess was very upset at this time because she made an unspeakable mistake, and this mistake was not only known to her brother Noel, but also to her father.The last conversation summoned by her father had already let her know that the Golden Dynasty was not a small country that she could manipulate at will, but what was the purpose of coming here this time?

Emperor Latour's long silence made Cecilia increasingly uneasy.

Did the father know anything else?Cecilia thought to herself.

Her long silky silver-white hair was gently blowing and scattered on her shoulders, as if surrounded by a layer of light silver mist.However, her brows were furrowed and her hands were clenched, conveying a subtle uneasiness.Her eyes were like stars in the beautiful night sky, bright and clear, but at the moment they seemed a little confused, with a little fear and uncertainty.

Cecilia sat on the velvet seat. The seat did not make her feel comfortable, but made her sit on pins and needles.Her slender legs were slightly crossed and her body leaned forward slightly, as if doing so could resist some of the pressure emanating from the desk.

The fifth princess, Evan Jielin, seemed even more flustered compared to Cecilia, who was trying to keep her composure.

Evan Jielin felt as if she had been bitten by countless ants. Distraught, she sat restlessly in the study, her slender fingers kept pinching a silk scarf, and her frowning red eyes seemed to be able to Breathing out fire.She was worried that she would be slandered as colluding with the Golden Dynasty, and helped the Golden Dynasty occupy Pulin City in collusion.

This will not only cause her to lose the trust of her father, but will also seriously affect her future political status.

The uneasiness and worry in Evan Jielin's heart were like a ghost, wandering in her consciousness.She felt helpless, anxiety and anger growing in her chest, making it difficult for her to face the situation calmly.She could almost hear her heart beating rapidly. At this time, Evan Jielin could only find a solution in a hurry, otherwise she would lose her father's trust.

When Evan Jielin's mind was filled with worries and uneasiness, her short hair became more messy, and the messy silver-white hair fell on her pale forehead and sharp chin.

Her brows were furrowed, her red eyes staring into the distance, burning with the idea of ​​solving the problem, and her violent breathing showed her nervousness and uneasiness.Her pupils were dilated, as if she was looking for clues wherever she could to avoid being murdered.

Although Evan Jielin's hair and eyes were a bit fierce at this time, her beauty was still obvious.

While Latour repeatedly looked at the information and letters in his hand, he secretly observed the expressions of his five children and sighed slightly in his heart.

Then he put the information aside, held the letter in his hand, and coughed lightly.

Emperor Latour's cough was no less than a thunder in the ears of these princes and princesses. Their sitting postures could not be more upright, and the expressions on their faces were flawless.

"Albert." Emperor Latour called softly.

"I'm here, Father." Albert stood up, straightened out the wrinkles on his clothes caused by sitting for a long time, then came to the desk and responded to Emperor Latour's call without losing elegance and etiquette.

Emperor Latour waved his two fingers slightly and handed a letter in Albert's hand, "Please take a good look at this letter. After reading it, pass it on to your brothers and sisters, so that they can also take a good look at it." have a look."

Albert took the letter, nodded respectfully, opened the seal with a little curiosity and started reading.

On his face, there was an expression of indifference at first, but as the content of the letter gradually unfolded, his expression became more solemn and his eyes became more and more focused.Especially after seeing the aura of the golden tree and the mark of the beast at the end of the letter, his handsome brows were tightly knitted.

Finally, he handed the letter to Noel, who was curious next to him.

Soon, the remaining princes and princesses also finished reading the letter.Their faces were all filled with solemnity and worry, and no one could turn a deaf ear to it.They all stared at the letter closely, as if they were afraid of missing something crucial.

Emperor Latour waved to Evan Jielin who had finally read the letter, and the latter immediately walked forward and returned the letter to the emperor.

"Tell me what you think." Emperor Latour adjusted his sitting posture and said with a comfortable expression, as if he was the only one who didn't care about the content of the letter.

Albert was the first to speak: "Back to my father, I think we must take this invitation from the Golden Dynasty seriously. We can no longer face them with the attitude of facing small countries. We should send an important minister of the empire to this envoy." The founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China."

Emperor Latour nodded lightly, said nothing, and turned his eyes to Noel.

Noel felt the emperor's gaze, and he immediately bowed and said respectfully: "I think we should attend the Golden Dynasty's invitation. At the same time, I also want to go there in person."

"What's the reason?" the emperor asked.

"Because I believe that only personal experience is enough to understand the truth, rather than relying on other people's rumors. In addition, I want to confirm some things. If it can be found out, then the French Holy Empire will be able to cultivate a chess piece within the Golden Dynasty. Therefore, I Decided to go in person." Noel replied.

The emperor nodded: "What you want to confirm is about the person named 'Death Sleep Girl', right? I agree with your plan."

Although the emperor's words were in a questioning tone, his expression and tone were full of determination and confidence.

Noel also nodded, indicating that the emperor was right.

Victoria did not wait for the emperor's inquiry. She took the initiative and said with a smile: "I also want to go to the Golden Dynasty with Brother Noel. My men brought me many interesting things and delicacies, all from the Golden Dynasty. Back. I was full of curiosity about the 'Golden Dynasty', but I had no chance to go there. Since there was a formal invitation this time, of course I had to seize the opportunity. At the same time, two princes from the Holy Empire of France went on an envoy together and also gave It has given the Golden Dynasty a lot of face and reflects the importance we attach to them."

Emperor Latour also smiled after hearing Victoria's words. His requirements for Victoria, who only wanted to be a rich man, were not as strict as the others.

He replied tolerantly: "Okay, of course you can go, but remember that you represent the image of the entire Holy Empire of France. Don't bring any trouble to your royal brother, and don't do anything detrimental to A majestic act of our royal family.”

After hearing the emperor's permission, Victoria happily replied: "Thank you, father, for your permission! I will do my best to carry out this trip on behalf of the Holy Empire and ensure that I will not cause any trouble to our entourage or our royal family."

Then Emperor Latour looked at the only two remaining princesses.

"Cecilia." Emperor Latour took the initiative and said uncharacteristically: "Tell me what you think."

Cecilia's smooth and smooth hands pinched the hem of her skirt tightly due to nervousness. She bit her head and replied to Emperor Latour: "My view is the same as that of the second emperor brother Noel. I think we can't The Holy Empire of Reims should send royal members to the Golden Dynasty to show how much we value it.”

"Yes." Emperor Latour responded, nodded lightly, and then suddenly said: "When this conversation is over, I will personally go to your territory to check the living conditions of the residents in your territory, just think of it as an assessment. .”

Cecilia showed a relieved expression at this time and replied: "Yes, Your Majesty. I will order my servants to prepare the carriage later."

"No." Emperor Latour shook his head: "Don't make it too grand. We can pretend to be ordinary people and go with guards."

Cecilia was stunned for a moment, then nodded with difficulty with a bitter smile: "Yes, Father, I will arrange it according to your requirements."

Finally, Emperor Latour looked at Evan Jielin, who looked the most nervous. He sighed and said: "As my spokesperson outside, what happened in Pulin City this time has indeed damaged my majesty. You will see it later." Go back and copy the Imperial Code five times, and be sure to finish it and hand it over to me before Noel leaves."

Evan Jielin looked lost at first, but when she heard the last sentence, her red eyes brightened again.

"You mean, do you still have a chance for me to go to the Golden Dynasty on your behalf?" Evan Jielin's tone was full of surprise and hesitation.

Emperor Latour nodded, his tone calm but still gentle: "The situation in the Golden Dynasty is extremely complicated. It is indeed rare for two demigods to appear in succession. It is understandable even if you misjudge their ambitions. However, It cannot be denied that your mistakes have caused adverse effects. For this, you must accept the punishment of the law. You need to copy the Imperial Code five times verbatim to alert yourself and learn lessons. Do you understand?"

He spoke in a gentle yet dignified tone.

Emperor Latour glanced at Cecilia, and his tone was suggestive and full of severity: "It is human nature to make mistakes, and I have made mistakes myself. The important thing is that we must face the mistakes and correct them. The most terrible thing is to make mistakes. Making a mistake and then trying to cover it up until it's discovered requires more money to fix the problem."

Cecilia looked gloomy and remained silent.

The mission to the Golden Dynasty did not only take place in the palace of the Holy Empire of France. The elves of the Songyue Dynasty and the Rivendale Alliance, the dwarves of Stoneheart Castle, the dragons of Dragon Island, represented by the Kingdom of Beixun The United Kingdom of Humanity, the Holy Pontifical State, and the Charles Empire were all invited by Roland. Small countries including but not limited to Austin and Philemon also received Roland's warm invitation.

Of course, at Jonson Bloodhoof's suggestion, he also extended an invitation to the wandering royal family members of the Orc Empire, but it was unclear whether they could successfully find them.

Chapter 117: Undercurrent

The capital of Charles's empire, the white-walled capital of Wiener, Luyi Stacey's mansion.

The businessman who had survived from Puling City was currently alone and restless in the study room where Lu Yi usually received guests.

As one of the few people who returned to the capital alive from Puling City, this businessman and his wife and daughter were targeted by His Majesty Judah the moment they entered the city, and were subsequently imprisoned at home.

Even though he was the vice president of the Lulan Chamber of Commerce in Puling City, Shadow Thorn's group of killers did not care about the identities of the people they arrested, and directly tortured the businessman's family and forced them to ask them what happened in Puling City.

The businessman and his wife and daughter naturally told everything they knew and could say, except that the businessman himself brought people from the Golden Dynasty into the city through a secret passage, which was deliberately concealed by the businessman himself.But when asked how General Arkady and his army who went to support were wiped out, the merchant family couldn't answer at all.

Because they were being held in a room in the Golden Dynasty camp at the time, they had no idea what happened, not even the fact that Greg was brought to Pulin City by Roland.It wasn't until the door was opened and the exiled soldiers came in and told them they could leave that the merchant family set out from the south gate of Pulin City and saw the horrifically devastated surface outside.

Obviously, what the vice president and his family said did not satisfy the Shadow Thorns.However, just when the merchant's eldest daughter was about to suffer a mental breakdown from being tortured by the Shadow Thorns, Lu Yi relied on his own connections to fish out the unfortunate vice-president's family. Although his mental health was not complete, at least he could save his life. took his own life.

Of course, Lu Yi didn't fish them out out of kindness. She also had information she wanted to learn from the vice-president of Pulin City.

The black tea that the official carefully brewed for the guests on the reception table had gradually cooled down. However, the businessman did not pay attention to the cold temperature. Feeling thirsty due to nervousness, he picked up the tea cup and drank it all in one gulp.

Just as the businessman put down the exquisite teacup, the study door creaked open.

The sudden sound in the quiet environment frightened the merchant's movements into panic, and the teacup was knocked over on the tea tray. Fortunately, there was not much liquid.

"Pap tap tap tap." Lu Yi Stacey, the current president of the Lulan Chamber of Commerce, walked in with a rhythmic beat.

The businessman immediately withdrew his hand from the tea cup, wiped the sweat from his forehead, straightened his messy clothes, and then greeted the still charming Lu Yi with a forced and calm smile: "Gui'an, President Lu Yi. "

Lu Yi ignored the businessman's greetings, but went straight to the reception table and sat down. He frowned and glanced at the unplaced tea cups and another cup of cold black tea, and clapped his hands.

The newly hired young butler came in quietly immediately, without any questioning or unnecessary movement.In front of the businessman, the housekeeper took out a brand new tea tray from nowhere as if by magic, and refilled the two people in the study with tea at a suitable temperature.

Then the young male butler bowed down to show respect to Lu Yi and the businessman respectively, then silently withdrew, and gently closed the study door.

"Becky Fitzgerald joined the Lulan Chamber of Commerce with her own assets two years ago, became a member of the Puling City branch a year ago, and became the vice president of the Puling City branch three months ago." Lu. Yi took a sip of black tea, and then casually talked about the merchant's resume after joining the Lulan Chamber of Commerce.

Without waiting for the merchant to speak, Lu Yi continued to speak quickly: "The Lulan Chamber of Commerce has nearly [-] million in assets in Puling City, and now they are all burned down. But the president of the Puling City branch has disappeared, so according to Lulan According to the regulations of the Chamber of Commerce, these losses should be borne by you."

The businessman named "Becky" turned pale. He stammered: "This, I, I shouldn't bear the loss. I followed President Tamad's instructions to seal up all the goods and store them in the warehouse. , it was General Lu Sien’s soldiers who broke in without authorization, injured our employees, and moved all the goods in the warehouse. This loss should be compensated by the military department of the Charles Empire. "

Lu Yi replied with an indifferent expression: "Did you just say that General Lu Si'en's soldiers did it? Those gangsters in the military department won't believe you just because of your words."

"This..." Becky looked confused. He knew that what Lu Yi said was not wrong.

Lu Yi put his hands on his abdomen, crossed his legs, and raised his chin: "Sit down first, Vice President Becky. Then tell me in detail what happened to you in Pling City."

After hearing what Lu Yi said, Becky's face turned pale.

He trembled, sat down, and said: "I...I told those Shadow Thorns everything I encountered in Pulin City. I don't know why General Lu Si'en went crazy and allowed his soldiers to attack us in the rich area." We carried out a massacre, and then I ran away with my wife and daughters. As a result, I encountered soldiers from the enemy country. When they heard that I was a businessman from the Lulan Chamber of Commerce, they just took our money and locked them up until the end of the war. Just let us go."

Lu Yi sighed slightly after listening to Becky's words, and then said in a stern tone: "Even if I make up a lie, it should be more logical, or can Mr. Becky think that such lame words can make me believe it? Gold and I What is the relationship between Roland, the lord of the dynasty, and now even a three-year-old child in the Charles Empire knows about it. Do you think I will believe that he let you leave safely after knowing your identity?"

She lowered her face and continued: "If you don't tell me the truth, I will have to hand your family over to those shadow thorns again. I remember that your eldest daughter has been tortured and gone crazy, right? For your family For your own sake, please ask Mr. Becky to tell me the truth. Otherwise, I don’t guarantee that those Shadow Thorns will have any means to torture your family."

Becky opened her mouth, but what she wanted to say was blocked in her throat.

His deal with Roland can be said to be an act of treason. If this matter were once known to Lu Yi in front of him, Becky could foresee that his fate would be ruined in the hands of this vicious woman.

But if he didn't say anything, his wife and daughter, who had finally been safe, would be poisoned again.Becky's mind flashed through her daughter's devastated expression, and she clenched her clothes tightly with both hands.

"I know you love your wife and daughter very much, so it's better not to show a troubled expression in front of me." Lu Yi spoke at this time. She looked into Becky's eyes, and every word seemed to hit him. Heart: "As long as you say it obediently, I can guarantee the safety of your wife and daughter. Women won't embarrass women, right?"

Becky is not stupid, he knows that he can't escape today.The implication of Lu Yi's words was to tell him that she would ensure the personal safety of his wife and daughter.

The vice-president of the Lulan Chamber of Commerce took a deep breath and told Lu Yi everything he had done and seen in Pulin City.
