Chapter 283: Wonderful!
When Basil was respectfully invited out of the reception room by the previous maid, he was still a little dazed, unable to fully comprehend the current situation.
The Twin Cities Cup?
Listening to the name, it seems to be similar to the competition of the Imperial Martial Arts.
So what's going on? I took Wang Jingrui to run to show off his strength, but he was confused before he stepped into the city, and now the person who should have been showing off is planning to show off his strength to his side?
I'm afraid this is not a rebellion!
Basil, who finally came to his senses, broke out in a cold sweat.
But after calming down, he felt that something was wrong.
It is true that Lancaster City is a relatively prosperous commercial city in the Northlands, and the annual tax payment is the highest in the entire Northland county, and it is not inferior to several important cities in the Warla Empire, but this is still under the condition that the emperor has no way to verify the other party's tax books.
Tunaya is the political core city of the Principality of Silver Eagle and is a major problem for His Majesty the new Emperor.
But to say that these two counties together can subvert the rule of the Valla royal family, it is too underestimated to underestimate the heritage of the Valla Empire, which has been in the country for more than 400 years.
After all, the Principality of Silver Eagle is one of the divided principalities of the Valla Empire, and the weakest national strength is the Grand Duchy of Romero, which is five or five different from the empire, and even the Duchy of Bailan, which guards the group of barbarians in Western Xinjiang, cannot be compared.
Neither Lancaster City boss Cowlinf nor Silver Eagle Duke Ponlein should be so unwise.
Could it be that this is just showing off muscles, indicating that you are not easy to mess with?
Basil couldn't help but be a little puzzled.
By this time, the maid had taken him to a room that was much more modest than Basil's.
The room was large in size, but there was little decoration, and it was a large bunk, which looked like a servant's room.
The room was naturally the elite of the previous kings, and when Basil came, the kings led by Knight Monan did not show a look of surprise, but they were a little glad in surprise It seems that at least the work of guarding Basil and protecting the safety of the other party has not been completely messed up.
"If you have any requests or want to return to your room, please feel free to call me." The maid gave Basil a word of advice, and exited the room, seemingly not intending to sit in on the conversation between the envoys.
This made Basil feel even more strange while breathing a sigh of relief.
What the hell are the people at Lancaster thinking? I was not even interested in my own side of the countermeasures, and I looked full of confidence and confidence in the so-called Twin Cities Cup.
Could it be that they are ready to blow the black whistle?
Basil immediately vetoed this possibility when he thought of it: blowing the black whistle in such a show of force and showing his muscles is completely an act of undermining his own credibility, and can only give others the impression that the organizer is strong and competent, which can be said to be contrary to the purpose and completely counterproductive.
"My lord, those guys from Lancaster didn't do anything to you, did they?"
Mo Nan saw that Basil seemed to be distracted all the time, and couldn't help but ask worriedly, for fear that the other party would be mentally tortured.
When he asked him this, Basil finally came to his senses.
Looking at the knight in front of him, the old man suddenly thought about it.
Anyway, it's not the old man who plays by himself. I have a share of the credit for winning, and I have a share of the credit for losing, and these kings are too useless, and there is no point in thinking about so much mess and nothing.
So the muscles on his face relaxed, and he turned back to his original calm expression: "It's nothing, it's just that the city lord of Lancaster told me something very interesting. ”
"Interesting?" Mo Nan was stunned.
The old man nodded, and then told them about the Twin Cities Cup.
Basil thought that these energetic Wang Jingrui after the break would pat his chest and promise to do his best in the game in order to wash away the previous shame, but after he finished speaking, although many of the guards did show a leaping table on their faces, none of them said that they wanted to participate.
This makes Basil a little strange.
Is the reward for this contest not attractive enough, or is your sense of military honor drifting?
In the end, it was Knight Monan who opened his mouth and explained to the old man Basil: "My lord, although we are all good hands among kings, to be honest, this kind of competition is not suitable for us. ”
"What do you mean by that?" The old man listened to him.
"Our skills are all murder skills honed on the battlefield, and what Heiri trained in the army is how to survive on the battlefield. Although these martial arts are very simple and practical, and the killing efficiency is also very high, it also means that the tricks are unpretentious, and it is easy to see the flaws in one-on-one battles. Knight Mo Nan spread his hands helplessly: "What's more, this kind of competition is a battle of the transcendental, although we have confidence in our own hands, but against the transcendent...... You get the idea. ”
"That's right." Basil nodded, and at the same time it dawned on him.
That's right, the Lancaster City Lord has a lot of savings, and he can definitely invite some extraordinaries who are very valuable.
Many transcendents may not be of much use on the battlefield, but in a heads-up situation, they can completely defeat dozens or hundreds of veterans along the way.
No wonder they chose this method to show off their force, that is, to make up their minds that the members of the envoy group could not participate, or even if they did, they could only serve as a foil.
is worthy of being the lord of Lancaster, and he is indeed an old fox.
Basil frowned: "That is, we can only do nothing this time and watch them perform?" ”
"Not really."
Mo Nan smiled slightly: "We are trapped here and cannot leave for the time being, but the adults can act freely by their share." You can try to send a message to the Imperial Capital with a letter kite, and ask Your Majesty to send the Transcendent to participate in the competition. ”
"Impossible." Basil shook his head: "The road is far away, the road conditions are bad, and the transcendents in the imperial capital are all pampered, so it is impossible to come here to help." ”
"Of course. Presumably, His Majesty is well aware of this, but His Majesty also attaches great importance to the mission of the Envoy Corps, so he will definitely choose another way to solve this problem. ”
Mo Nan said with confidence.
"In what way?" The old man had a vague idea in his mind when he mentioned this, but he continued to ask.
"The state religion of Valla is the Chongbai Church, so the Chongbai Church has always been friendly with His Majesty...... In the event of such a thing, His Majesty will definitely ask the Chongbai Church in the imperial capital to give an order for the Lancaster Local Church to send people to participate in the competition. ”
Only then did Mo Nan say his thoughts: "If you want to deal with the transcendental, the Chongbai Church here will at least send a bishop-level figure!" When the time comes, as long as you find a way to have a relationship with the other party and ask the archbishop to invite you to the church, you can get rid of the control of the Lancaster city lord and take refuge in the church! ”
The old man clasped his hands together and laughed when he heard this.
