Chapter 649: Illiteracy (Sincere thanks to the Alliance Leader for listening to the water and falling leaves)
Hearing Allen's speech, William instantly understood that the other party knew everything about what he was thinking, and he thought it was a heavenly punishment, and he could not be spared, and then roared at the wizard who thought it was Harold hired, "Harold's evil wizard! So the reason why Lao Tzu and the fleet were scattered is also your ghost?! You will be punished by heaven for your crimes!"
"Harold's wizards?" Alan walked up to William and looked down at him condescendingly, "You misunderstand, the kings of the Kingdom of Wessex have always been very religious, and their attitude towards wizards is different from that of you, Lord Duke...... Don't be angry and desperate, if it weren't for the storm I tolerate, you would have met Harold as soon as you came ashore, and Harold had already built a defense in the south waiting for you, and he waited for you while you traveled, and I think you would have lost more than three hundred boats......"
William pursed his lips tightly, as if he could resist the other party's interpretation of his own mind.
Alan sneered, shook his head and continued: "Let me tell you a piece of good news that you may not know, although Harold has won the battle against the Vikings, but the losses are quite serious, and he is still recuperating in Yorkshire. β
Feeling the frenzied joy welling up in William's heart, Allen added: "Not only that, you know that the coast is not fortified now, but you probably don't know that there is no decent defensive force in the entire south of England now, Harold and they hope that you Normans will not attack across the sea again because of the autumn harvest period, in order to deal with those Vikings, they have brought all the power they can bring with them, if you can land in Britain, at least the whole south can be regarded as at your fingertips- If you have a way to let Harold know of your landing, and then don't hurry south from the north to fight you in the field because the troops have not been recuperated, I personally think that with your Norman forces and tactics, you still have a good chance of defeating the Britons' shield wall tactics that are still relying on the Roman legacy. β
"But the premise of all this is that Lao Tzu can land in England now, right?" William suppressed the joy of knowing the news from Allen's mouth, he knew that since the wizard in front of him didn't sound like Harold's person, then he must have something to ask for to do this, the bastard duke looked at Alan's young face, and then seemed to wake up or something, although his attitude towards wizards was more ambiguous, but as a self-proclaimed religious who was quite devout in addition to this, the bastard duke had his own bottom line, and he roared at Allen: " Don't be delusional that Lao Tzu, as a devout believer, will promise you evil wizards what conditions!"
"Your Excellency, your imagination is abundant, but I will not let you contribute to the maidens, and then bathe in their blood to keep you young forever...... The reason why I look so young now is because I am so young......" Alan glanced at William, who was both happy and worried, and felt that the bastard duke had read too many legends, and he continued to speak angrily, "As long as you sign a contract with me, I can send you back to your fleet, you see, don't you yourself make a pact with many wizards to make them serve you......?"
"Lao Tzu won't make any agreement with the wizard!What is the content of your contract?!If it's something evil, don't say it!" William continued to let out a snarl that brought out a lot of saliva.
The other party's blatant inconsistency and roaring way of speaking made Alan stunned for a moment, only to understand that the other party actually had the intention of trading, and didn't want to do anything more with this duke who spoke too loudly and spitted and had some ruffian temperament, Alan directly said the conditions, "A magical contract, the content of which is that you need to recognize the ownership of a large piece of barren land designated by me as my own - although it actually belongs to Scotland now." As long as you and your heirs to the throne β and not just your descendants β but those who have inherited your throne in their legal name β need to acknowledge this, or they will be severely cursed and punished. Of course, and I will guarantee to send you safely back to the fleet and land safely in England. β
The vicinity of Hogwarts was under the Muggle Expulsion Charm, so Muggles could not see Hogwarts, and even if Muggles reached the gates of Hogwarts, they would only see tattered ruins with a "Do Not Enter" sign on them.
Muggle electronic devices and equipment, including computers, televisions, radios, mobile phones, walkie-talkies, etc., are not to be used near Hogwarts, as the air is filled with strong magical magnetic fields that can cause strong interference with electronic devices other than wizarding radios or wizarding televisions that have not been modified by wizards.
What Alan wants is the land in and around Hogwarts, although the Muggles can't find it, so after nearly a thousand years, no Muggles have developed that pleasant area, and it is not safe to rely on the Muggle Expulsion Charm alone, and many wizards had contact with the royal family before the secrecy law came into effect, this is the prophecy that Rowena Ravenclaw made in the end, and it is also the responsibility she wants Alan to take for the Hogwarts they have established- Although she didn't really care much about the academy itself, she was at least concerned about Helga Hufflepuff's wishes.
Hearing the word magic, William's first reaction was to refuse, and he was determined not to sign any contract with the wizard in front of him.
Allen's fingers moved, and the snake letter of the python that the blade of the sword turned into gently brushed his face, and William was full of excitement. From the duke's throne to the throne of the high king, the vision of the rich land of England came to his mind again......
If William's heart was not at war with the devil-like wizard in front of him, he and his men would probably remain in this sea forever, the attraction of the throne to him, the coast at his fingertips, and the threat of death at hand...... He seemed to feel the cold breath of the giant python exhaling from his cheeks, and under the threat of life and the temptation of power, he kept praying in his heart for the protection of the gods he believed in, and William's fist clenched at his sideβ Although being so despised by the other party made William, who had absolute authority in Normandy, very uncomfortable, and it was a pity that he might have to carve out a large piece of land that did not belong to him even now, but obviously in the case that the wizards he had raised might not be the opponent of the other party, after he calmly thought about it a little, it was natural to know how to choose.
"Looks like you've made your decision. Alan took out a piece of parchment and let it float in mid-air, and had a quill begin to write in Latin on it, and like the precious and religiously decorated manuscripts with which William was familiar, the Latin began to appear with ornamental initials and decorative borders.
"Show the contract to the labor!" William frowned, looking like a lion about to get angry, and the contract in Alan's hand flew into his hand. William's eyes were as sharp as a vulture, and he stared fiercely at the contract in his hand for a long time.
For a long time, Allen, who had been looking at Armand Malfoy with great interest, suddenly turned his head to look at William, who was still looking grim as if he was reading the terms, but by reading and recalling the content of the history text, Alan was shocked to realize that William, the Grand Duke of Normandy, actually had very serious dyslexia, and was an out-and-out illiterate person, and he could not read the words on the contract at all.
"Merlin's fattest briefs! I'm illiterate and pretending to look at the contract so horizontally?!" Alan finally couldn't help but roar back at the other party, squirting at William's face.
