Chapter 61: Lexington

Lexington, the center of the great slave city-state, with a population of more than a million people, including the surrounding area, was a bustling place, with huge quantities of supplies and resources to rival the New World. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

However, this also brings a lot of trouble, as the owner of Lexington, it is impossible for the person to do everything, just like you manipulate the program on the computer, but this is a 97 system, the consequence is that you can only run one command at a time, and it is a painful experience to upgrade.

With information loss, flaws in the capital, lurking rats, and an endless stream of bugs (loopholes) looming in front of you, the slave city-states will inevitably grow in power and win wars with the help of tenderness or iron-willedness.

All of this has to be added but, this frustrating word......

Slavery, as the core of the city-state, did allow slave owners, aristocrats, and the propertied class to firmly hold the army and power, and slaves who did not need to pay wages made it easy to invest in infrastructure and industry.

But this also made the enslaved people complain, although the army can suppress all the fools who dare to resist, and the people can also form secret guilds against the government, such as the shadow thieves of Lexington.

Unlike the famous eponymous organization in the multiverse, the Shadow Thieves Guild here is not just thieves, but also assassins, debt collectors, protectors, and liberators.

They walk in the darkness, wearing hoods and cloaks, armed with weapons of all kinds, and the most feared of all, daggers and hidden blades, silently sending off all targets.

For all things are promised, and all things pass away......

One such shadow thief was Komako, who disguised himself as a guard soldier and watched as the legations from the far south slowly entered Lexington.

It is said that the Lily Princess sent men on her own initiative, hoping to sign some favorable covenants with the slave city-states and their allies.

There was no expression on the shadow thief's face, and only those who were familiar could feel the chill from his gaze.

A group of hypocritical Old World aristocrats, who talk about liberating the Elama brothers, and in the end do not want to shake hands with the slave owners, it is really disgusting.

Especially the woman on the horse, who, according to intelligence, seems to be an ambassador of the legations, called Mariana?

Then next to her should be the deputy, the name ...... Forget it, it's just a deputy who has no real power, so don't worry so much.

Komako, who felt like he was aware of everything (and was actually blind), quietly disappeared from the ranks of the guards, and he still had a lot to prepare.

The envoys, with the help of agents sent by the slave city-states, quickly settled in the chosen station, Mariana and the elites still had a lot to do, but Lorraine was relieved.

Now his identity is a dispensable deputy envoy, and he only needs to go with him to meet with the interlocutor, and there is not much to do, which is really easy.

"It's really unpleasant to look at you."

"It's all your fault, since you're only an official envoy now, then hurry up and take me to complete the task, I'll go out ......"

"You still want to hang out, that's ......"

In retaliation for Lorraine's slackness, Mariana personally intervened to train the poor general, and the almost cruel training of lady manners was so painful that after a week, Lorraine felt like a world away.

The day after Lorraine finished his training, the slave city-state storyteller also decided to meet with them, and Lorraine and Mariana put on their diplomatic dresses for the first time, fortunately, they didn't need to wear the elaborate costumes of the St. Orlando Empire, otherwise it would definitely make people crazy.

After the group completed their 'armament', they marched towards the Conqueror's Arena under the escort of the little lolis of the Loria team.

The Arena of the Conquistador is said to have been built by the builders of the first slave city-states, taking ten years to complete after conquering the area around Lexington, and consumed more than 20,000 slaves for the effort.

As we get closer to the Colosseum, we can clearly see the magnificent building from a distance, with twelve huge arches as entrances and exits, like an enlarged version of the Colosseum, but it seems that it is not suitable as a meeting place.

Passing through the archway, you can see the high and low seating area in the arena, and the highest noble area is densely packed with civil officials and military generals of the slave city-states.

Lorraine had not personally met any of them.

Except for the uncle who walked by in a white robe with a beard and a smile, this guy looked ordinary, but he was the person in charge of intelligence in the entire slave city-state, a terrifying presence named Hussein.

Hussein was very happy to see the arrival of the Lily Envoy Delegation, and enthusiastically walked to Mariana to perform a noble etiquette, "Welcome to the envoy of Her Royal Highness Princess Lily, Venerable Miss Mariana to our great city-state of Lexington, if there is any inconvenience in life, please raise it with our officials." ”

"Thank you for your hospitality, my colleagues and I feel the greatness and warmth of the city-state, thanks to His Excellency Hussein's hospitality these days, I wish us all the best and may our friendship last forever."

Listening to Mariana's skillful diplomatic rhetoric, as well as Hussein's disgusting, hypocritical smile, it really made Lorraine unhappy, and he quietly looked at his colleagues here, and found that everyone was acting serious and not honest.

Finally, the two sides ended the welcoming ceremony, and Hussein began to introduce the members of the envoys to a middle-aged man who walked over in turn, judging from the tone of the other party and the magic in the air, this middle-aged man was likely to dominate the council of the speakers, and his strength was not low.

"This is the deputy envoy of the legations, Miss Lorraine and Taylor."

"It is said that Lorraine and Taylor are great generals, and this beautiful young lady seems to be the right one?"

The middle-aged man's words made Lorraine stunned for a moment, and immediately reacted that this was the effect of spiritual magic, "Lorraine, Mr. Taylor is indeed a good soldier, my name is ...... Charlotte (Marianna whispered), salute you, sir. ”

He circled around Lorraine twice with some wantonness, and nodded at Mariana with satisfaction, "Very good etiquette training, I didn't expect Miss Mariana to train an excellent lady in a week." ”

"It's all for the sake of a covenant between the parties, Mr. Ask."

The man named Eske didn't say anything more, nodded and continued to greet the other members of the legation, finally to Charlotte's (Lorraine) relief.

The next step should be the official stage, right? (To be continued.) )
