"Wait, Alice, you seem to have said that you have a friendship with Sigony, the princess of Barusenga, who is now Queen Goth?"

Suddenly remembering the place that had been neglected all along, Drake's whole body jumped up from his seat like a spring, he was not very awake early in the morning, and the effect of alcohol made her brain more or less unconscious.

"Yes, don't you know? In the Second Scandinavian Defense, she replaced the seriously ill Beowulf as the leader and commander of the Scandinavian coalition army, and under her command she succeeded in reaping a second defeat for the King of Destruction in the same place. ”

"Yes, yes, but I thought you were the biggest contributor to Attila's defeat that time. ”

It was that successful defeat of the attack of the Atila army that made Alice's reputation resound throughout the Baltic coast, so that the people who originally thought that she had defeated Dorengo only because of luck truly affirmed Alice's strength, and recognized her nickname of "The Girl Who Brought Disaster".

Therefore, whether it was those who survived the battle, or those who learned about it from others after the war, they blamed Alice for the victory of this battle, believing that it was her presence that allowed the Scandinavian coalition army, which had lost Beowulf, to successfully repel Attila.

As for the princess Barushinger, who had been appointed by Beowulf as the leader of the coalition forces, her light was completely overshadowed by Alice, and except for some people in the coalition army, no one took her seriously at all, and did not admit that she had contributed to the war.

"Don't underestimate the woman named Sigourney, if she were the princess of Barusenga, she would only be a slightly notable fellow, but now that she's the queen of the Goths, and from what I know of her, I don't think Siegel will be able to make it to the end of this conspiracy. ”

If Sigourney is just the princess of Barusenga, and there is her father Barusenga, and a whole ten brothers above her, in any way, as the youngest sister, she can only make some suggestions that cannot affect the overall situation, and there is no way to really come up with a decision.

But now that Siegel had destroyed Sigoaney's bonds, her father, her other brothers, her city, and her men had been destroyed and killed by her husband, with the exception of her youngest brother Sigmomund.

Alice, who had met Sigourney, knew that the woman named Sigomery was now difficult to describe as human, and under that beautiful skin was a fire of revenge that could burn everything.

Alice believes that on this thorny road of revenge, no matter who stands in her way, she will be killed mercilessly, as long as there is a glimmer of hope for revenge, she is willing to use everything she has to obtain, body, emotions or everything else.

Through Alice's mouth, Drake had a rough judgment of the goth queen, and in her mind, the image of a vengeful girl who was used by her husband and lost everything was simply sketched.

"According to what you say, that Sigournie will be even more dangerous than Segal, even if we help her successfully reverse all this, but there is no way to prevent the establishment and birth of the Scandinavian Empire, in that case, don't we have a better choice?"

Even if he loses the leadership of Siegel, as long as he can inherit the strongest Gothic kingdom in Scandinavia, then whether it is Sigourney or Siegel's relatives, they can still easily unify the entire peninsula and establish a vast empire.

"No, no, no, we have no choice but Sigoney, Sigmund is gone, we can't find him, and even if we do, we can't meddle in his business. ”

"As Odin's last male descendant on the main plane, he will definitely have the attention of more than one god on his body, and those Valkyrie on flying horses must be by his side, if we rashly touch him, it will only attract the attention of the gods. ”

"Or do you, Francis Drake, have obtained the certificate of overlord and truly become the overlord of the North Sea, and now that you have the agreement of the gods, you don't need to be afraid of those gods, and you can do whatever you want under the gaze of the gods?"

Alice retorted loudly, knowing that only such a hard attitude could dispel the other party's doubts at this time, so that Drake could return to her rhythm and participate in a third-rate family tragedy according to the script she had already written.

"Don't get excited, Alice, I didn't say that, I didn't think like that, why did I get excited all of a sudden?"

Drake smiled wryly, her perennial career as a ruler had made her develop the habit of being a decision-maker, and in the face of Alice's unceremonious rebuttal, even if the other party was a friend equal to her in status, she was still a little unconvinced in her heart.

"Or are you going to support the guys who are now cornered by Siegel and are still in a mess, pulling at each other's hind legs?"

Alice didn't go down the ladder because of Drake's softness, she continued to maintain an aggressive posture, broke the last delusions and choices in Drake's heart with sharp words, and mercilessly refuted the candidates she put forward.

"Okay, Sigourney will be Sigourney, but Alice you haven't answered my question yet, if we support Sigourney and let her succeed in her revenge, how can we ensure that she will not use Siegel's legacy to build an empire that encompasses all of Scandinavia?"

Through Alice's description, Drake has a little trust in Sigourney, and she begins to believe that the other party can complete the revenge on Segal with the support of the two of them, but she does not believe that Sigourney can hold back the desire in her heart after completing her revenge.

Drake didn't see any reason for Sigourney to refuse the temptation to accomplish the great cause of building an empire, to gain the authority of an empire, to become the ruler of an empire.

"Don't underestimate Sigoaney, her revenge isn't just for Siegel, whether it's Goths or other countries in Scandinavia, even those guys, it's all within her range of revenge, the fire that burns in her heart is so eager to burn it out as fuel, believe me, Drake, it's definitely not my joke. ”

Alice looked into Drake's eyes seriously without blinking, in order to make her believe her words, to support the Gothic Queen who was now in Sigoney's palace and could do nothing but be a mother for childbirth, Alice even believed that I would never say three words, and forced the feeling of numbness and nausea to say it.

"Let me think about it, it's too much at stake, and I need a little bit of time. ”

Drake waved his hand so that Alice would not disturb him, and sat down in his seat, deep in thought.

There weren't many options left for her, Scandinavia was too close to her territory, the North Sea, and if an empire called Scandinavia did emerge, with the support of the gods, Drake felt that he had little chance of winning in the end, even Jutland with Alice.

The size of the territory determines the amount of resources and population, and Drake does not think that with a few small islands in the North Sea, and those who can't even go up to land on the bottom of the sea, he can win the same imperial war.

Seeing Drake who was in deep thought, Alice was not in a hurry, she knew that she had already said what she had to say, and all that was left to do was to wait, Drake in front of her was no longer the one who faced the projection of the Sphinx and didn't even have the power to fight back, in this part of the North Sea, the strength of the other party will be greatly increased, not to mention the magic of [demagogy], even some slight hints will not have an effect, but will make Alice fall into a bad situation.

Ten minutes, twenty minutes, thirty minutes, the quiet hall made the passage of time very slow, and Alice, who had become bored, sat on the chair, her slender little feet kept shaking under the table, her eyes closed, reading the words written in her mind on the Book of the Dead.

On the one hand, reading is Alice's hobby, and on the other hand, supplementing knowledge in her free time is also a habit that Alice has developed over the years, even if she is essentially a lazy person, but driven by pressure, she will still run forward.

As the sunlight from the window began to soften, Drake finally opened her closed eyes, and she twisted her sedentary body into a series of bone clicks, and a trace of tiredness appeared on her face, thinking that she must have spent a lot of energy thinking about the choices Alice had given her in the past few hours.

"I'm sorry, I'm too obsessed with it. ”

There was an imperceptible hint of hoarseness in her hearty voice, which brought back to her senses Alice, who was immersed in the ocean of knowledge, and she was browsing a book from the Underground Library of Alexandria, which recorded how to make an obelisk out of materials.

"Drake, little question, but wait until you have to treat me to a good meal, you should know that I only have one hobby left but to gain knowledge. ”

Alice, who was disturbed, was not annoyed, she smiled and made a small joke to the pirate king in front of her.

"No problem, no problem at all, I will definitely prepare a delicious meal for you to remember for a lifetime. ”

The pirate's life is a life of plundering with his head tied around his waist, and after the plunder, the surviving pirates will sell what they have plundered in a very short period of time and exchange it for generations of lovely gold and silver coins.

Then, within a few days, the gold and silver coins were handed over to other people, and these coins stained with blood and souls were exchanged for a luxurious life that ordinary people could not imagine in their lives.

Among them, the precious ingredients, the food prepared by the masterful cooking methods, is where they spend the most besides the consumption of hormones, shellfish, and alcohol, and on the island ruled by Drake, there are as many as three halfling chefs, and the quality is much higher than those invited by Siegel.

So Drake directly agreed to Alice's small request, because even if Alice didn't put it forward, she couldn't entertain the other party with shoddy food.

"So, what do you think of my proposal, Drake?"

A small joke rekindled the atmosphere between the two, and it didn't stiffen because of Alice's aggressiveness just now, well, Alice would never admit it, it was because she was really hungry and began to miss last night's food, so she made this request.

"Well, don't worry, my friend Alice, since you believe in the Gothic Queen so much, I can only trust that name. ”

Saying this, but in essence, the reason why Drake agreed to support Sigoaney, Alice's factor only accounted for a very small part, and the real thing was that she had no choice for anyone else.

With the exception of Siegmund who disappeared, the other kings and chieftains were a bunch of mud that could not hold up to the wall in Drake's eyes, and she even had reason to believe that the weapons and magic items she gave those guys would not be used against the Gothic army at all, but on other kings and chieftains.

Even now, when Barusenge was destroyed, there are still some kings and chieftains who believe in Siegel, believe that the Goths are innocent, that the destruction of Barushinger has nothing to do with them, and that King Siegel, who has lost the object of his marriage, is also a victim.

This is also a helpless thing, if in Alice's words, "The last drop of brain pulp in the brains of those berserkers has been turned into muscles, and their small brain capacity is simply unable to distinguish between good and bad people other than eating, sleeping and fighting." ”

"So, how do we go about the first step?"

With Drake's words, the discussion about this decision on the fate of the entire Scandinavia completely came to an end, and Drake also agreed with the fact that in the subsequent actions, the Jutland forces were the main and the Drake forces were supplemented.
