Volume 15 The War of Kings!Chapter 35 Solicitation

"If the ransom is paid, then your identity must be matched. 【Fengyun Reading Network.】"

When Luo Lan said this, he also glanced at Meng Feisi with great meaning, and the latter was shocked.

Mmphez's lips moved, hesitating to say something, but before he could speak, Luo Lan raised his hand to stop him.

"You don't have to tell me who you really are, and I'm not interested in knowing it right now, just remember that the ransom amount is not wrong, so that I can give an explanation to the Monks' Council, do you understand?"

Meng Feisi was stunned for a moment, he first showed an incredible look, then looked at Luo Lan seriously, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes revealed a look of gratitude that he didn't know if it was true or not, and said: "Thank you for your generosity" Even at this time, he refused to make any gestures to lower his posture.

He must not be captured, or he must not be captured as the eldest son of the emperor, as long as this matter is spread, then it will inevitably be a blow to his prestige.

But he was not only worried about these at first, because the relationship between the Holy See and his imperial sister seemed to be good, so just now Luo Lan said that it was very possible for him to send him there, which was even more unbearable for him, which meant that he lost in the political struggle, not only in power, but also in his life.

It seems that the other party has seen his identity, he has already made up his mind in his heart to get out safely even if he pays more price, and he is even ready to be coerced by the other party, but he didn't expect the other party to let himself go so easily?

For a while, he couldn't see through what the other party was thinking.

"Who is the person in charge of the closest Monk Guild to here?" Luo Lan turned to ask the messenger beside him.

"It's Baron Cody, and he's from the Mage Guild. The messenger almost immediately told the name and background of the person in charge of the place, and although he was not a deacon in this matter, he was very familiar with the personnel of the Monks' Guild, and he did not show any smug expression on his face when he said it.

Luo Lan smiled and said, "Then you need to ask this knight chief to live there for a while." ”

Monpheis nodded silently, he knew that this was inevitable, first explained to his personal guards, and then he whispered: "Please rest assured, in three days at the latest, my subordinates will definitely deliver the ransom." After a pause, he added, "A ransom that matches my identity."

"That's for the best. ”

Luo Lan glanced at Troima, who understood, and lazily said to the messenger, "Lead the way." ”

Without waiting for the Courier to respond, she picked up a man in one hand, spread the wings of her back, and lifted Monphes and the Courier into the air at the same time, flew off into the distance, and disappeared in a moment.

The cavalry of Montphes did not dare to linger long, and hurried out of the place under the leadership of several officers, and the eldest son of the emperor was captured, and they must immediately tell the news to the senators and nobles of the country, and let them prepare the ransom.

Almost a quarter of an hourglass later, Troima returned with the messenger and, as soon as he let go, threw the latter to the ground.

The messenger, who felt that his whole body was about to fall apart, stood up with a wry smile, but did not dare to complain.

"Now that we're back, let's continue to deal with the matter here, it seems that this dwarven tribe can't just leave it alone," Luo Lan said to the messenger, "Then please go and tell me that I, Landiston, want to meet their patriarch and discuss their annexation to the Monks' Society." ”

The messenger trembled, his face suddenly turned pale, he saw very clearly just now, the robes worn by Monpheis and the others were the robes of the Monks' Society, they were obviously acting in the name of the Monks' Society, although they didn't know the whole thing, but he could guess a thing or two, but Bishop Lantis turned a blind eye to it, and didn't even mention it.

Obviously, the dwarven tribe must have thought that this matter was done by the people of the Monks' Guild at this time, and they were deceived and killed and injured so many people, and now they must be in a state of rage, not to mention whether they will listen to their own explanations, just to appease the clansmen, they will definitely not let themselves come out safely, right?

Cold sweat dripped down the messenger's head, and his heart was in a conflict.

It stands to reason that this matter has nothing to do with him, but he does not dare to refuse, since he was brought here alone by Landiston, he feels that his life has been held in the hands of the other party, and if he suddenly dies "accidentally", then the monk will definitely not stand up for himself because of this.

But in any case, the dwarven tribe must not go there......

After weighing the pros and cons, the messenger finally made up his mind, and he looked up and said, "My lord, I don't think this matter is appropriate, please think again"

Luo Lan said lightly: "Oh, why?"

The messenger bent down and replied respectfully: "You have come here to receive a complete tribe of dwarves, and the meaning of the Monks was the same before, but now the situation has changed, and the dwarves must still be angry at this time, with their minds, I am afraid that they will not listen to any exhortation, then this is completely contrary to the original intention of inviting you, so only let the headquarters send someone over to deal with this matter first before we can talk about the next matter." ”

Luo Lan looked at the messenger with a smile and said, "There is some truth in what you say, so we don't go to the dwarf tribe?"

The messenger's demeanor became more and more respectful, and said: "Of course, even if we want to appease these dwarves, then we must first get the ransom of the Easton Empire, right? ”

It's obviously a very tricky and troublesome thing, but when he turned it over, it seemed that Luo Lan didn't have anything to blame even if he left with his hands, and even cleared up the relationship at once, so that he didn't have to take risks there.

It can be seen that this messenger is not only familiar with the rules and regulations of the Friars' order and the internal situation, but also knows how to exploit the loopholes in it, and knows how to protect himself, and he is a person who knows how to discern the situation.

Luo Lan's gaze stayed on the other party's face, and he said slowly, "What's your name?"

The messenger did not dare to hesitate, and immediately bowed down and replied, "Nisdega, Levi Nisdega." ”

Luo Lan sighed and said, "Nisdega, are you interested in coming to my side to do things?"

Nisdegar was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly: "I'm just an ordinary nobleman, it's a great honor to be appreciated by Bishop Lantiston, but I only know a little magic, and my level is very low......"

Luo Lan waved his hand to stop him from continuing.

"It doesn't matter, some positions require not superior force, but flexible minds and sophisticated skills. ”

Hearing this, Nisdegar's expression showed a little meaning, everyone knows that now Bishop Rantiston is unique in the Monks' Order, powerful and does not need to pay attention to other people's faces, and being able to follow him is definitely a great future.

Without any hesitation, he lowered his head, bowed down to Luo Lan, and said, "Obey your arrangement, Lord Bishop." At this point, he deliberately used the title "bishop" to indicate his chosen position.

As for the position of the Monks...... Almost immediately, he wiped out what little attachment he had left, and he didn't have to think about it anymore.

Now that he has taken refuge in Bishop Lantiston, he feels that it is necessary for the Bishop to plan more, and after thinking about it, he said very carefully: "According to my observation, Vice President Lantiston, the identity of that person just now is probably not simple. ”

Luo Lan smiled slightly and said, "This person is Meng Feisi." ”

A hint of surprise flashed in Nisdegar's eyes, and then he complimented, "Your Excellency is really wise. ”

"In fact, he himself has exposed too many flaws. Luo Lan pouted and said: "When I was face to face with him, he was very calm, and he didn't take the initiative to salute when answering, how could this kind of behavior be a little knight chief? ”

Out of caution, Luo Lan tested this person again in the back, and sure enough, after mentioning Du Lanweier, the other party really became nervous, if it was an ordinary knight chief, and he was also a citizen of the Easton Empire, he didn't need to be so nervous.

Of course, if it's just these, he is more likely to be just a cronie of Monphes, and the final determination of his identity is still the twelve knights of the Knight Alliance, all of them have the strength of high-level knights, and it is already good for ordinary nobles to have one, but he has a whole team, and he doesn't care much about it, which is enough to explain the problem.

However, he didn't intend to reveal the identity of the other party, and he didn't mean to help Janice or Dulanville.

After hundreds of years of governance by successive monarchs, the Easton Empire is like a military power, and its political system is inherently characterized by outward expansion and aggression, so it can be said that no matter who becomes the monarch of this country, as long as the aristocracy and interest groups are still the original group of people, then the pace of imperial expansion will not stop.

The Easton Empire crawled like a hungry beast in the north of the continent, ready to pounce and devour its prey at any moment, and the easternmost part of the country stretched almost northwest of Bethlehem, and was expanding until Odinira's death.

What's more, the threat of the Griffon Legion is too great a threat to any country or diocese. Such a behemoth crouching at his side obviously no one can rest assured, so Luo Lan decided to support Dulanvier, and at the same time restore Janice to the northwest of Bethlehem, in order to make the Easton Empire fight among themselves, consuming national strength and population. In this way, not only can he not let Monphes die, but he must let him live well, and it is better to squeeze all the flesh and blood of the Easton Empire, only then will it be in the interests of Bethlehem.

......

"Your Majesty is going to attack the diocese of Mosa?" Boris, who had returned to the headquarters of the Monks first, had not had time to rest when he ran into the regional bishop Andunes, who had been waiting here.

"The matter just decided a few days ago, although it is an internal matter of the Holy See, but it is not appropriate to go without a famous person, I was going to choose Brother Freinard, but the swamp tribe in the south seems to have some changes, and there is really no way to leave him, and after he passes, it seems that he will stay there for a long time, and it is suitable to lead the legion, and it needs to be the person trusted by His Majesty can only be Brother Boris. ”

As one of the five diocesan bishops most loyal to the center, Andunes' personal presence here this time is enough to show the importance that the Holy See center attaches to this matter.

Without much thought, Boris immediately agreed.

There is really nothing wrong with this matter, and because the excuse is justified this time, all the dioceses did not oppose it on the surface, and even denounced the diocese of Mosha together, as for whether they secretly funded the diocese of Mosa, it is unknown, but this is at most to delay the defeat of the other party, and it is impossible to stop the army of the center at all.

For Boris, it's just a door-to-door feat.

As for whether the mage will make any moves during the time he leaves, he thinks there is no need to worry, the Holy See's greatest strength is still in the honeymoon period, and the other party will not be allowed to make any changes.

Later, Andones found Brother Frenard, and after a secret conversation with more than an hourglass, Frenard rushed to the south with his cronies without stopping for a moment.

At this time, Abner had already arrived at Arena's temporary residence in the city, and after knocking on the door, he walked into the hall, only to see Arena sitting there with a sad face, not at all as lively as before he left, and couldn't help but be surprised, "Irina, what's wrong with you?"

Erina bit her lip and said with a sad face, "My father is here, and he wants to take it back." ”

"Your father?" said Abner, had he come to pick up Erina, or was it something else?

Wait, aren't you thinking about how to get to Elven Island? Isn't this a great opportunity?

"I'm sorry to bother Master Abner when I came to visit. An elven man appeared in the drawing-room, led by a servant, and his voice was so thick and beautiful that anyone who heard it once would not forget it.

"Is that you?" Abner was stunned for a moment, and suddenly said, "So you are Irina's father, I should have thought of it a long time ago." ”

The elven man smiled and said, "This is the second time we have met, but this time, not only do we want to take Erena home, but we also want to turn to you for help, Master Abner. ”

"Please sit down and talk. After inviting the other party to sit down, Abner glanced at Erina, but did not find anything on the other party's face, so he turned to the elf man and said, "Can you tell me what is the matter?"

The elven man's face gradually became serious, and he said, "On the way here, I heard a rumor near the port of the Free City-State, that the black elves of the underground world are about to form an alliance with the Diocese of Bethlehem, and use the port of the Free City-State as a springboard to attack Remfernaya. ”

"The Black Elves are in alliance with the Diocese?" Abner shook his head in disbelief, "It's unlikely, isn't it?"

The elven man sighed and said, "Although I also hope that this is not true, I think it seems that there is nothing impossible, after all, as long as the two sides can bring benefits to each other, and can exercise restraint in the place of conflict, it seems that it is not difficult to form an alliance, and I have heard that Bethlehem will become an independent diocese in the near future, so it is even more unlikely that anyone will interfere." ”

This is indeed possible regardless of each other's positions, but Abner has never been able to accept this naked collusion of interests, and he believes that a person who is righteous at heart is always a little insistent.

It's strange that I am afraid that he himself did not find out, he didn't care about this kind of thing, and even had a utilitarian heart, but unconsciously, he suddenly became a little disgusted with these.

"I came in a hurry after learning about this," the elven man looked at Abner with expectant eyes, and said, "I learned on the way that Master Abner and Irena had been to Bethlehem, and were warmly welcomed there, and they also rushed back to the headquarters of the Monks in time through the teleportation array there, so this time we want to trouble you, we want to meet Bishop Rantiston, I wonder if Master Abner can be introduced?"

After thinking about it, Abner agreed, and said, "I think this should be possible." After a pause, he added: "However, Bishop Rantiston has other important business, I am afraid that he will not return in a few days, and I am afraid that you will have to stay here for a while during this time, and I will arrange this matter as soon as Bishop Lantiston returns." ”

......

"I just got the news that the diocese of Bethlehem is said to be about to become an independent parish. Several of the Monks had already returned to the headquarters, and it seemed that it was expected that Landiston would return soon, and the initial arrangement did not seem to have all the effect, and after occasionally getting the news, Domol sensed the importance of it, and immediately came here to inform his father.

Ryder Noisa's eyes widened slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "Is the news reliable?"

"Very reliable. Domol nodded affirmatively, "I arranged that person myself. ”

Lednoissa mused, "Well, in that case, Landiston is likely to return to Bethlehem?"

Domol said: "It should be so, yes, he has no reason to stay in the Holy See, and it is impossible for the Holy See to directly assign him what to do in the future." ”

"This is important news. Then although the threat to us after his return is still against us, it is not so great in the near future, and his focus should be on his own parish......" Lednoisa stood up unconsciously, and muttered: "Now that we have successfully transferred Freinard away, Boris is about to go on an expedition to the diocese of Mosa, and he will not be able to return in a short time, and it will take some days for Angus Gale and Semerhir to calm down those disputes, and this is a respite for our mages." ”

Domol smiled coldly and said, "They didn't take this opportunity to crush us, and when we recover, they will definitely regret it in the future." He lowered his voice again and said, "Abner, it seems that the Elder's meeting with him has had some effect, and he has gone to see the elf today." ”

Lednoisa smiled rarely, and said, "The next thing we have to focus on is him, no matter what, that drawing must be obtained, it is the key thing related to the success or failure of our mage." ”

"That's what the elder meant, suspecting that the blueprint was hidden on Elven Island, but only Abner knows where it is, and Elven Island is not such a good place to go, and unfamiliar people Elves have always been unpopular, so we can't force him too much now. Speaking of this, Domol was a little worried: "It's just that if he changes his mind halfway, it will be a very troublesome thing." ”

"Don't worry," Lednoisa's eyes flashed as he said, "The Elder's psychic magic has never been wrong, and Abner shouldn't be a big problem." ”

......
