Chapter 685: Ask for help

"Your king and queen are joking, aren't they?

"Is there no one else in your country who is capable? I remember Sigomery being the best druid and god priest in the Northlands, can't she use prophetic spells to find it?"

Semiramis frowned, looking at the letter handed over by the envoy of the Scandinavian Empire, with irrepressible surprise in her tone, what was written on it seemed to her to be too strange.

"Yes...... Yes, Your Majesty Semiramis. ”

The messenger from the Scandinavian Empire, standing below, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with a towel uneasily, and just standing in front of Semiramis, he felt an extraordinary pressure, as if something heavy was pressing on his body, forcing him to bend down and kneel on the ground.

He is an emissary of the Scandinavian Empire, and he cannot make such a great gift to the monarch of another country, which is not only an insult to him and his country, but also a crime that will be sent to the execution ground after he returns to his own country.

Controlling his body with difficulty, standing in the middle of this empty conference hall, his eyes looked at the ground, waiting for Semiramis's reply, he had already known what was written in the credentials beforehand, and when he was told such a thing at first, he couldn't believe it, but because of his loyalty to the empire and Siegel, he buried this secret in his belly, and cautiously came to the Baltic Empire, to Semiramis.

The children of King Siegel and Queen Sigourne of the Scandinavian Empire disappeared from the palace seven years ago, and no trace of any clues could be found by any method after that, and even the gods could not give an accurate answer.

In order to ensure the stability of the empire and maintain the prestige of Siegel in the country, they endured the pain of losing their son while maintaining secrecy, and used all means to find traces of their children.

The results speak for themselves

If he could find it, the messenger would not have appeared in the presence of Semiramis, who had sought help from this ambitious, powerful foe in search of their children.

The messenger could not understand why the king and queen had paid so much attention to the third son in the presence of the other two boys, and had to pay so much trouble to find them.

It is not at all in the interest of the state to pay so much for the prince, and not the only prince, but considering the private feelings of the king and queen, it is another matter.

This time the negotiations, and the credentials handed in, were not in the capacity of Sigony's friend who didn't know how much water, but very formally in the capacity of the king and queen of a country, like the Baltic Empire, asking for help.

Siegel and Sigourney have now completely put aside their pride for the sake of their children, of course, for some well-known reasons, they want this request to be kept secret and not be known by outsiders, they have lost a son.

"These things are cheap compared to your king's children. ”

"And, if I'm not mistaken, your Scandinavian Empire still owes our country a favor, you shouldn't have forgotten that we saved your affairs from the hands of the Attila Empire, right?"

Semiramis smiled faintly, she didn't agree at the beginning, she didn't say no, because she had a lot to think about, such as what kind of gain they could get.

Although Sigourney did make such a promise when she came to visit the Baltic Empire, the subsequent development, rather than the so-called help, what the Baltic Empire did was more like taking advantage of the chaos in Scandinavia to swallow the rest of the Northlands into the empire's territory.

The envoy blushed, but could not find anything to refute, the Baltic Empire had sent troops at the request of the Scandinavian Empire, and it had really saved the fate of the destruction of the Scandinavian Empire, and all Scandinavians must admit this.

"Forget it, since you think that your prince, a child of Gothic royal and Barusenge blood, is only worth such a price, then I have nothing to say, do you say?"

Finding a child is not a very difficult thing for the current Baltic Empire, it is the self-confidence of a powerful empire, and in the current Northland, nothing is difficult.

Semiramis pointed to the reward offered by Sigourney in this letter, including a large amount of gold and silver treasures, some precious materials, and the favor of Sigourney and Siegel.

These things are indeed very valuable, and they are indeed very huge compared to the pay, but the current Baltic Empire does not look down on this thing, or rather, this thing is not at the same level compared to the children of Siegel Siegel, and compared to the secrets they want to hide.

"Your Majesty Semiramis, you ......"

Whatever you need, just ask

The rest of the sentence is not spoken, but it is probably what it means

He has completely given up resistance, as long as the Baltic Empire can agree to this request, he can relax the conditions as much as possible and lower the bottom line of the conditions, because he is not only the envoy of the Scandinavian Empire, but also the envoy of King Siegel and Queen Sigoaney.

"Don't worry, it's been seven years, and it doesn't matter if it's too long. ”

"Well, we need a little time, think about it, discuss it, no matter what we do in the Baltic Empire, we need to have a normal procedure. ”

Semiramis waved his hand, and the pressure on the messenger suddenly disappeared, and he glanced at Semiramis, then bowed knowingly, and left the place backwards.

The messenger also knew that it would not be so easy to get the other party to agree to this request, but now they had no choice, they were at a disadvantage within a disadvantage, they had become a fish on the chopping block, and no matter how much they struggled, they could not escape the fate of becoming an ingredient and being cooked into food.

"What do you think? Alice. ”

Watching the messenger leave the chamber, Semiramis put the credentials on the table and asked the empty seat next to him.

This position next to it is reserved for Alice, as the empress of the entire empire, and only Alice can have a status equal to her, not anyone else, including Qiel, including Skaha.

At least not under normal circumstances.

"What do I think?"

As the voice appeared, Alice's figure appeared in her seat, and she had just been hiding in the shadows, watching the interaction between the Scandinavian messenger and Semiramis.

"So, Semiramis, what do you think?"

"It's weird. ”

It must be very strange, Siegel and Sigonice have three offspring of boys, and now they are fighting for such a big move as the youngest, no matter how you look at it, it seems very strange.

"That boy must have an extraordinary secret in him. ”

Moreover, the two of them have absolute confidence, thinking that even if I know that this is a secret, it is impossible to dig up this secret and know the specific situation. ”

"Do you want to help them?"

Now the Baltic Empire occupies an absolute dominance, whether to help them, how to help them, how to help them, how to help them, and after helping them find the child, it is up to the empire to decide whether to return the child to them.

"Like King Ochu's child? Let that child stay in the empire to be educated, and when he reaches adulthood, let him return to their parents as the heir to the Scandinavian Empire. ”

Four years have passed since King Ochu's children came to the Baltic Empire, and apart from their identities, their words and deeds, and their living habits are no different from those of a Baltic Empire.

Whoever one of them can successfully return to Ireland and succeed Ochu as King of Ireland, they will spread the culture of the Baltic Sea to their country.

If this child of Siegel and Sigourney is like this, then in ten or twenty years, the Baltic Empire will be able to rightfully annex Scandinavia as part of the Baltic Empire.

"Well, then help them, but don't agree so quickly, now they are asking us, we can use this to get more benefits from them. ”

Alice made a decision, and Semiramis had no objection.

-------------------------------

"Run, run, run, mobilize the muscles of your whole body, and share all the fatigue. ”

Siegrud was on his daily run, and behind him, a swarm of bees that formed a cloud flew fast, making a dense buzzing sound.

He was running desperately, breathing evenly, mobilizing his muscles, maintaining a certain speed, and maintaining a certain distance from the swarm behind him.

His father, Sigmund was accompanying him, but the bees did not dare to target him, and did not dare to enter the three-meter radius of Sigmund at all.

After Siegmund showed him that he wanted to become stronger, all Sigmund could do as a father was to support him as much as he could, help him, and provide him with the best conditions.

The food has increased from the normal three times a day to five times, and the quantity and quality of the food has improved considerably, and it is basically cooked with ingredients from the powerful beasts.

At the end of dinner, Zygmund would treat the boy to heal the wounds he had suffered from training during the day, and he would also use techniques learned from his druids to reduce the damage on his body.

This kind of hellish training, although very cruel and hard, but the effect is also outstanding, Siegrud can feel that his strength is changing dramatically every day, for the better.

Last week, he had no way to complete the plan Siegmund had made, and his actual combat training was a failure, and every day when facing those two velociraptors, he was a failure.

But after a week of training, this week, more precisely, yesterday, although it was not able to completely win, but it was able to give the opponent a certain amount of damage, so that the opponent was not as comfortable as before.

"Don't be cranky, run seriously. ”

Zygmund's voice suddenly exploded in his ears, waking the boy from his deep thought, and while maintaining his speed, he dodged a bee's attack sideways, and then slightly increased his speed, once again keeping his distance.

Now, the boy has been able to make initial use of his five senses except for his eyes, and even with his eyes closed, he can use the flow of air and sound to dodge the attacks of bees.

"Okay, the morning training is done, take a break and have lunch. ”

As soon as Siegmund's voice fell, the bees that were chasing after him made an arc in the sky and flew into the nearby forest, and after ten seconds, the buzzing of their wings was completely gone.

This is a druid trick that Siegmund learned from his sister, and he can easily control insects and some common plants that are not very intelligent, and cannot be used against beasts such as velociraptors.

"Father, Mother's Affair ......"

Drying the sweat off his body and tidying up his messy clothes, the boy hesitantly walked up to Zygmund and asked in a low voice.

He hadn't met Siegmund yet, but his desire for news from his mother had brought him to his father.

"As I said, when you can defeat those two velociraptors, I'll tell you all about your mother, everything I know. ”

Siegmund said coldly, what has been decided, the promises made, he will not easily change and break, even if the object is his own child.

"There's nothing to do, after eating, rest for a while, and go to actual combat training, with such a cranky time, you might as well think about how to win. ”

"When I'm your age, let alone a two-headed velociraptor with a small group of velociraptors, I can easily win. ”

The boy didn't know how many times he had heard such words, so he had to close his mouth and think about how to kill the two velociraptors in an open place and using the existing conditions in his hands.

He kept thinking about the Velociraptor and the previous battle with the Velociraptor, hoping to find some inspiration that would allow him to get the key to victory.

If only it could be magical

The boy glanced at his father and thought enviously.

Unfortunately, his talent for magic was much worse than his father's, and he couldn't learn even the simplest little magic.
