It is not surprising that Nicholas IV wanted to kill Gullamance on the spot and avenge the Earl of Denton.

However, escorting the puppet emperor Gulamans back to the imperial capital and executing him in public after the trial was a royal move, and it was also conducive to intimidating the nobles of the five provinces.

The next step is to push for reforms and reclaim the authority of the aristocracy, which will be pushed along the water, and will be subject to much less resistance.

Bai Xiaowen tried to assert the stakes, and Nicholas IV once again followed the advice.

Finally, Nicholas looked at the entrance to the swarthy Bosvian gold mine and asked, "Dior, how did you tell that the Xisha rebels were hiding in the Bersuvius gold mine?"

Bai Xiaowen explained with a smile: "The location of the gold mine from Bosuvi Castle, as well as its concealment, are the reasons why the rebels chose to hide here. Actually, I'm not 100% sure, but the Bresvi Gold Mine, as the source of the underground passage, must be sealed...... Whether the rebels are here or not, we have to come here after all, and we won't lose anything. ”

It's best for the rebels to hide here, and it's okay if the rebels don't hide here, and it's also imperative to block the source of the underground monsters.

Nicholas smiled and nodded, and then ordered the bishops, priests, nuns, and other clergy accompanying the army to guide the Imperial Legion to block the underground passage.

Next, the Bosuvi Gold Mine was filled, and the clergy of the army set up a large-scale sealing magic to ensure that these underground monsters could not break out again.

This process takes a long time, not a day or two to complete.

Of course, Bai Xiaowen doesn't need to stay here to supervise the work, he has other things to do.

......

"The capture of the puppet emperor Gulamance is of great significance. This meant the collapse of the camp of the old-school aristocracy, and Auguste's original plan to replace him as the sole leader of the camp and gain a near-infinite stay in the Kane plane has been declared bankrupt. ”

In a secret meeting with only the participation of Nicholas IV and the White Phoenix team, Bai Xiaowen sat under the emperor and analyzed the situation.

"Then that's secure, isn't it? Awakened ...... Well, speculators from other worlds have a limited amount of time to stay in our world, and as long as their mission expires, they will be forcibly expelled. In order to take care of Nicholas's cognition, Cecilia changed the colloquial term of a spirit person.

Bai Xiaowen shook his head.

"Those speculators are not fools. Knowing this, Andrei still decisively gave up on Gulamance and did not fight to the death. This shows that they are not cornered, and there is another way out. ”

"Retreat ......"

The crowd in the room was lost in thought.

Qiao Rui's eyes lit up: "Lord of the Plague." ”

"That's right. ”

Bai Xiaowen's finger was pointed to the north of Kane's map.

"We know that the Divine Court speculators have planted pawns in the Empire, the Old Aristocrats, the Drow Elf Empire, and the Plague Lords. ”

"This time, a large number of necromantic plague barrels have been buried in Bosuwei Castle, which means that the influence of the Divine Court speculators in the forces of the plague lord is definitely not small. ”

"Their original plan was to choose the old aristocratic forces to become the final unified camp and maximize the contribution to the war. But now that the old aristocracy is basically gone, they must change their plans and take other paths. ”

"The drow elves have been tricked by them. What's more, the Drow Elven Empire is a matriarchal society, and the status of men is extremely low, so it is naturally not suitable for these Divine Court speculators to operate!"

"Therefore, these Divine Court speculators are very likely to completely defect to the Lord of the Plague and take the Lord of the Plague as the ultimate unified camp!"

Bai Xiaowen pointed his finger at Bosuwei Castle, sighed and said, "After all, from the perspective of the Lord of the Plague, these speculators have just given him a big gift......

"At the moment Beauvian Castle is in quarantine. ”

Nicholas IV spoke quietly, "The tragedy that once happened in the Northland will never be allowed to be repeated in Xisha Province. Dior, your Erudito developed the Plague Buster Medicine, which saved the human fire in the Northlands. Now, I need your help again. ”

"It is my pleasure, Your Majesty. And as a human being, from a humanitarian point of view, I will not sit idly by and watch the necromantic plague spread. Bai Xiaowen was righteous.

Nicholas IV and Bai Xiaowen have dealt with each other many times, of course, they will not be confused by appearances, and directly said: "Dior, what reward you need, you can say it directly." ”

“emmm......”

Bai Xiaowen was slightly embarrassed, and then said with a smile: "Your Majesty, in fact, I don't want any personal rewards...... It's just that Your Majesty has given me the entire Northland, and now that the Northland is poor and deserted, can Your Majesty move some people over?"

"......," Nicholas IV sighed, "it's better if you still want some personal rewards." Migrating populations is a big deal and extremely troublesome. On top of that, everyone knows that there has been a necromantic plague in the Northlands, and there are still a large number of zombies roaming the Northlands...... How can any normal person be willing to migrate there? I cannot force the people to leave their homeland without regard to their will. ”

"That's ......"

Bai Xiaowen also sighed and said: "Large-scale migration is indeed difficult, and I also understand Your Majesty's difficulties. ”

Nicholas IV was slightly surprised.

Bai Xiaowen raised his head and said, "However, the flow of dozens or hundreds of people should be relatively easy to achieve." ”

"???" Nicholas IV was puzzled.

"That's right, there is a shortage of top talents in White Rock City right now," Bai Xiaowen said with a smile, "For example, my blacksmith shop can now produce relatively good standard equipment, but the best equipment still can't be produced." Can Your Majesty send some master foundries, master jewelers, master inscriptions, and master alchemists...... Wait, go to my territory, and help build the frontier. ”

"Are you dreaming......," Nicholas IV shook his head, "how many top talents are there......? At present, in the imperial capital, there are only one or two people who can be called masters in various industries, and most of them have a grand reputation. Wouldn't it be the same as exile to force them to go to you, and none of these masters would agree to it. ”

"Your Majesty's will, don't they obey it either?" Bai Xiaowen said.

"First of all, I make such a will, which is tantamount to distorting the will of the people, and my conscience cannot be at peace," Nicholas shook his head, "and secondly...... Even if those masters are forced by my will to go to your White Rock City, how much enthusiasm do they have for their work?Dior, you can force the horse to the water, but you can't force the horse to drink. ”
