Chapter 34： Negotiation

Rebecca was suddenly called to the name, the first reaction is to excite the spirit: For the little heirs of the fallen family, the situation in front and the big circle around him are basically the scenes she never dreamed of. Even when she ran into the woods and wrestled with the wolves, she did not have the illusion of this level. When she looked at the ancestors and the big men, she even forgot that she was actually an important participant in this meeting. one.

But Rebecca’s girl is so good at the head iron, even if she is a little blind, she also calms down with a strong – even near the nerves of the necrosis of the nerves. After finishing the language a bit, the little lord from the southern countryside begins. Tell the king about the nightmare that happened to Cecil.

Everyone listened to the concentration, even if they didn't expect to be spoken by such a little girl, the disaster itself made everyone shut their mouths seriously.

Regarding the incidents that took place on the southern border, the people present were basically more or less aware of some. That thing is fermenting in the whole southern region. The rumors of various versions are flying all over the sky. Of course, this is not all Gao Wen’s credit. The Gao Wenpai people mainly disseminate things about their own “resurrection”. He does not focus on rendering the disaster itself. The catastrophe is essentially the best rumor catalyst. After two months of brewing and spreading, it is well known in the South.

Civilians may lack the channels to investigate the truth, but the nobility is not lacking. Through various means, the people present are more or less aware of the events. Francis II has even secret reports from many aristocrats in the south. However, no matter how detailed the report is, it is impossible for the personal experience of the parties to be more accurate and reliable.

In Rebecca's increasingly fluent narrative, the disaster was slowly pieced together and connected with the dark magical tides of 700 years ago, and the appearance of a dragon made the whole thing even more A layer of confusing veil.

Looking at the frowning king and the nobles, Gao Wen sighed softly.

These people have just paid attention to the resurrection of the founding fathers, and whether the Cecil family wants to ask for benefits from the royal family. I am afraid that the most important purpose of the Cecil family to forget the king is to report the monsters. - But this can't blame them. Who makes Gao Wen's presence more high?

And this sense of existence is still tossed by himself...

"...Now the entire area of ​​Cecil has been turned into scorched earth. Longyan contains magic. It has been burned for years and cannot grow food. My people have to spend the day under the protection of Viscount Grumman. Rebecca has stood up. She clenched her fists. The previous timidity and tension disappeared. "His Majesty, and your lord, Cecil's collar is small, but this disaster is a signal, the dragon." The idea may not be clear, but the monster is really a disaster. The monsters appeared seven hundred years ago. They led to the destruction of the Gangster Empire. My ancestors experienced it all."

Francis II began to whisper with his former prime minister and the northern Dagong. Others also bowed their heads and saw that they did not regard the news brought by Rebecca as air. This should be thanks to the news that continues to spread. The secret letter from the South and the existence of Gao Wen Cecil himself. Without these, a fallen aristocrat in the southern countryside ran to the king and said that his family territory was destroyed by monsters and dragons. All that can be obtained is ridicule, let alone cause Discussed, it is possible to get guilty.

But it is hard to say how much they can pay attention to and how much they can make.

After all, the world has been peaceful for seven hundred years.

"His Duke of Cecil," said the tall, thin man sitting outside the seat on the left side of Gao Wen. He is the Western Grand Duke Berdwin Franklin, a gentleman who looks gentle and gentle. "I believe in you." The honesty of the descendants in this matter, but this matter is really ridiculous - let me talk, the monsters are really in the dark magic tide seven hundred years ago... those monsters?"

"I have been dealing with them for twenty years, and I have been killed until I become ash. I recognize them," Gao Wen said seriously. "And I still play against them again. I can make sure that the monsters are from the dark magic. The kind of thing that emerged. Unfortunately, they will quickly disintegrate after being killed, and they will not be able to leave the specimens of the body. Later, the dragon still burned the entire territory, and now there is no way to send people to Cecil. The situation is over."

Berdwin Franklin and his neighbor, the great landlord Silas Loren, looked at it. Gao Wen said: "If you think that the Cecil family deliberately exaggerated the truth in exchange for sympathy, and wants Take this opportunity to return to the center of power, and that can be said directly."

"No, no, we don't have this kind of thinking," said Bai Dewen, who said, "We just need to... confirm these things. After all, it involves the magic wave of 700 years ago. The degree of importance... even surpasses any category that the human kingdom can face alone..."

"But they are already on the door!" Rebecca stood up and couldn't help but stand up. "I saw them with my own eyes!"

"Don't worry, calm down," Gao Wen pressed Rebecca's shoulder, pressed her back to her seat, and turned to look at Francis II. "I know that your caution is justified. After all, enter the state of war. I have to pay a lot of money. I also bring some evidence that our warriors used weapons and equipment in the South. Although the bodies of those monsters could not be preserved, the equipment would inevitably be polluted by elements when fighting them. The residual corrosion on the equipment should give you some reference. I believe that even the most brilliant royal scholars will not be able to find samples corresponding to the real world from those corrosive atmospheres."

Two powerful waiters lifted a large box. After opening the box, several broken swords and some distorted armor wrecks were placed in front of everyone.

Those things seem to be soaked in strong acid. The original smooth metal surface is covered with potholes, and with the dirty color, the metal that is most eroded by the elemental force even becomes a texture similar to dead wood. Take out a large piece of debris.

"Now they are harmless, they can be touched by hand, but until half a month ago, these steels are constantly disintegrating themselves," Gao Wen explained while watching the samples of the king and the nobles. "If the historians of these seven hundred years have not slacked home, there must be records in this history."

"Yes, there is..." Francis II nodded and said.

"In addition to this, we have found a note by a wild mage in the middle of a coincidence, and his notes mention the signs of the sun's red flare and the signs of magic surge..."

Gao Wen came together with the information he could provide, but it was clear that the information from the Wild Master's notes did not attract much attention.

For most of the people present, those things are not even as convincing as the debris falling from the pieces of the sword armor on the table.

"Do you know where the dragon went?" Finally, the Victorian dude Victoria Wilde broke the silence. She seems to care more about the dragon than the monsters. "Or you can guess the purpose of the ta. What?"

Gao Wen shook his head: "I don't know about it."

Although he is a big man, it does not mean that he is more knowledgeable than the people present. Gao Wen Cecil, who was 700 years ago, did not deal with the dragon.

Well, at least not in memory.

After seeing the crystals of last night, Gao Wen’s memory of his inheritance is not so convincing.

"In fact... three months ago, there was a rumor about the dragon on my territory," the female duke said in a word, "Someone claims to see the dragon fly from the colder mountains of the north - But in the end, no other witnesses were found. The person who spread the rumors proved to be the illusion of drinking more wine: he mistakenly regarded the snow in the mountains as a dragon."

Gao Wen immediately asked: "Is that person describing the specific look of the dragon?"

“No,” the female duke shook her head. “But I can continue to investigate after I go back.”

"It is necessary to investigate, not only to investigate the dragon, but also to investigate those monsters," said Francis II. "Look at other places in the country where similar things appear, or whether there are abnormal magic surges."

Rebecca couldn't help but open his mouth again: "But the light investigation is not enough. You must also prepare for the battle. - Those monsters will suddenly appear. There will be no signs beforehand. If you don't prepare in advance, you will not have time to defend. The investigators must have been late when they found out that they were traced..."

The Duke of Silas Loren, who was stationed on the eastern border, looked at Rebecca with dissatisfaction: "Do you want soldiers all over the country to prepare for the battle, wait for those who don't know when it will pop up - even Isn't it a monster that will come out?"

Rebecca replied subconsciously: "If that is of course the best..."

"This is impossible. We can't mobilize the soldiers of the country because of a illusory possibility. The local aristocracy will rebel, and the reputation of the royal family will be reduced," said the Duke of Silas, his face strong. Tall, with a typical martial temperament, "not to mention, we have to deal with the threat of the East Timor Empire - that country is a wolf, waiting for a flesh and blood from Ansu is not a day or two."

In the past, the remnants of the empire empire broke out in four directions after the destruction of the homeland, and finally established a new kingdom in the northeast and southwest of the mainland. The Tifeng empire is a country located in the eastern part of the mainland, and it is still the most powerful of the four countries. .

The human kingdoms of the North, the South, and the West coexist with the original kingdom or ethnicity of the region. Only Tifeng is now the only country in the eastern part of the continent, and its strength and style of action can be imagined.

Ansu is adjacent to Tifeng, and there are large areas of fertile soil and rich mines on the borders of the two. It is a natural contradiction.

In the first few hundred years, the human kingdom of the same door can still remember the feelings of brotherhood and peace, but the long-term peace is unrealistic. One hundred years ago, the Ansu civil strife, the Titan empire took the opportunity to be slightly on the border. With a move, the relationship between the two countries began to turn sharply. Now, it can be said that there are few days.

The big frontal war did not, but the little friction never stopped.

As far as the current situation in the Kingdom of Ansu is concerned, the south is barren and has remained flat for a long time. There is no contradiction between the northern countries and Ansu, and the Ogule tribe in the west has always been an ally of Ansu, only in the four worlds. This century has been under the pressure of war, so the Duke of Silas Loren of the armed forces will never agree to turn the military power to guard against those illusory monsters. For him, those things that are almost legendary are far less than everyday. The Tifeng army, which was swaying under his nose, was threatened.
