Chapter Seventy-One: The Alliance
After Devany departed, the three Charlottes sprinkled skull powder and left the ruins. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Although tonight was far less dangerous than the previous adventures, Charlotte and Claire were feeling unusually tired.
"The reason for this is because of you, young master!"
As they approached the State Guest Boulevard, Neham parted ways with the two. He pushed his glasses to show his displeasure with Charlotte.
"I thought this Abyss Hand would only corrode my mind dangerously enough, but now it looks like it's nowhere near as good as the Charlotte retardation technique you've studied!" he slammed Charlotte's poisonous tongue in a calm tone.
"It's Charlotte's mnemonics!" Charlotte pointed out Neam's mistake, "I've decided! I'll seal it forever when I've perfected it, and even if you kneel before me and beg, I won't teach you this unique secret art!"
"Don't worry, I'll never learn Charlotte's retardation. Neham sneered at the corners of his mouth, "By the way, if you don't perfect it soon, I'm willing to bet this spell will kill you sooner or later." ”
"Soon! I swear I'll be perfecting it soon. Charlotte was also troubled by the aftermath of Charlotte's mnemonics, but it was undeniable that its presence did make Charlotte's casting and learning abilities improve exponentially.
"More concerned than this, I am more concerned about what the two Grand Dukes of Ullapool and Holtson have discussed, and the specific plans of the Prince are also worrying. ”
"I'll figure it out. "I only hope that the next time we act, you'll find a way to heal you." ”
"It can take a little bit of time, and the most important thing we lack right now is time. Claire shrugged, "Anyway, let's keep in touch, we'll report to Archduke Lawrence on what we've seen today." After all, the three of us alone can't thwart Prince Maysfield's scheme. ”
The three of them talked about how to connect with each other for a while and said goodbye, and when they returned to the state guesthouse, Charlotte and Claire told Lawrence what had happened today.
That night, Lawrence and Herbert visited Sylvia, and the three archdukes only talked for a few minutes, and Charlotte and Claire, who were guarding the door, saw Herbert walking out shaking his head.
The uncle looked at Charlotte, who was guarding the door, patted him on the shoulder and sighed, "My good nephew, you must not learn from your eldest sister in the future, she is simply not in the oil and salt! I can't figure it out if she doesn't want to take the initiative to control the situation, doesn't she know how dangerous the current situation is?"
"My sister has my sister's considerations. Charlotte smiled dryly and said perfunctorily, "After all, the purpose of the original Icewind Castle was to never expand externally! Icewind Castle is an academic country, and once it takes the initiative to invade, it will change the nature of the entire country." ”
Actually, it's all!
In addition, according to Charlotte's knowledge, her sister has no interest in mundane politics and war, and she is not even interested in managing Icewind Castle, so how can she be interested in mundane power!
If you really have such an idea, maybe as early as after the annihilation crisis and when Claudio abdicates the throne, Sylvia will be able to become the empress as a princess of the Magic Empire.
But Charlotte and Lawrence knew this kind of thing, but they couldn't tell Herbert clearly.
"Forget it, it's useless to say this. Herbert shook his head and cheered up, "Anyway, Lawrence and I have decided to contact the great nobles of the Empire and form an alliance to deal with the threat from the Prince and those two greedy hyenas. Let's hope things go well, and we won't let this alliance fall to the day when Icewind Castle will be brought in!"
It seems that Sylvia is still holding her mind, and Icewind Castle will not take the initiative to participate in the war unless the flames of war spread to the north.
Charlotte smiled confidently, he hadn't taken the whirlpool too seriously until this time.
In his opinion, even if the civil war really began, it would never reach the north. Today's empire is declining, and the Knights of Erosa can be called the top in the continent, and with the support of Locente, no matter how you think about it, you can only beat others.
What's more, although he has not seen Elbert when he came to the imperial capital, as a disciple of the lord of the Emperor, Emmanuel, he is not a vegetarian, as long as he can thwart the prince's conspiracy and let Elbert ascend to the throne, then this civil war may not be able to fight.
Even at that time, his father was ambitious, and he could only gain more power by slowly encroaching on Elbert's political means.
In this way, as long as Maysfield's plot can be thwarted, everything will be happy.
However, Herbert was obviously not as optimistic as him, he patted Charlotte on the shoulder and said, "All in all, let's get through this imperial capital crisis first." Thank you, Charlotte, keep your friends on track, I'm curious to see what those two hyenas are up to!"
Herbert would of course be nervous, because the Duchy of Hotson borders his Duchy of Lotter, and the relationship between Lotsente and Hotson has been very tense over the years.
Perhaps for Herbert, he was more concerned about the movements of Archduke Hotson and Archduke Ullapool.
Lawrence then walked out of Sylvia's room, glanced at Charlotte and Claire who were guarding the courtyard, and nodded at them.
"Thank you for your hard work. There was a deep fatherly love in his eyes, "But promise me that you won't do such a dangerous thing next time." Leave the rest to me, I don't want to see you do such a dangerous thing again, you two have a great future, and you can't fold yourself in such a place. ”
Charlotte and Claire said yes in a row, but whether Charlotte, who is full of adventurous genes in her bones, listens to it or not, that is unknown.
As the night came to an end, Charlotte and Claire exchanged goodnights, rubbing his aching shoulders and heading into the room.
As soon as she entered the room, Elle was transformed into a young girl in a burst of silver light, her hands clenched into fists, and her cheeks flushed like a drug addict.
"Whoa--oh-it's just suffocating me! I can't play such an exciting thing! Protest, protest! Next time you have to bring Elle if you have fun!
This guy who is afraid that the world will not be chaotic seems to be holding back the evil fire in his stomach because he can't appear on the stage, but in that case, letting her make a move is tantamount to declaring her identity.
Charlotte didn't bother to pay attention to her, dragging her tired body and lying down on the soft bed in a large shape.
The next second, he screamed and jumped.
"What's wrong?what's wrong?!," Elle hovered in the air on her stomach, her expression excited.
"Assassins, ghosts!"
Charlotte's eyebrows were squeezed together, and he took out a hard object from the pocket of his lower back, which happened to be on his waist just now, making his body hurt by the elf girl's fall.
"It's that profiteer's ghost thing that stung me!"
Charlotte said, throwing the rusty metal iron man out.
The Iron Man coincidentally hit Elle's forehead with a muffled thud, Elle clutched her forehead and screamed, her crimson pupils glistening with tears, and she grinned at Charlotte.
"Damn Charlotte, I'm going to bite you to death!
"Wait!wait!" Charlotte surrendered loudly as she clenched her arm, "I didn't mean to! I swear it's a good heart! I'm going to give it to you as a token of apology for not letting you do it tonight!"
Elle bit Charlotte's arm with teary eyes, and said indistinctly, "The snake wants it!
"What a skull, where are you so rich in associations!" he complained to Charlotte, who could understand her.
Then, suddenly thinking of something, he grabbed El's little head, "Wait! Skull!?"
Charlotte knows what Elle is talking about!
She said that she was one of her two major props, the inscription on the Thinker's skull!
