356 The way of the world is about to change
"Clever? How so? Roland asked curiously.
"The king is dying." Ashrothfin said lightly.
Roland's expression was very surprised, he remembered the last time he saw the old king, he looked quite energetic.
"You can even find out the news that the king is seriously ill?" Roland swallowed the noodles in his mouth and said with considerable admiration: "It stands to reason that if the king is seriously ill, he should block the news, right?" ”
Ashrothfin pulled a water bladder out of his system backpack and was about to pour water to clean his bowl and chopsticks.
However, Roland flicked his fingers lightly with his already grown right hand, and several balls of water hovered around Ashrothfin.
After staying for a while, Ashrothfin understood what Roland meant, and while he put the wooden bowl and chopsticks in the water balloon to wash them, he said with admiration: "It's still convenient for you mages, there are too many small skills in this kind of life." ”
There were also other players next to them who finished eating, and they were also trying to clean the dishes and chopsticks with the drinking water in the water bladder, but when they saw these water balloons, they immediately came up and stuffed their own chopsticks into them, and after a few balls of water became very muddy.
These merchant players have developed a good habit of not wasting resources, after all, for those of them who run outside all year round, the clean drinking water in their system backpack is limited, although they have made a plan, such as when to settle in which city, replenish water and food, but there are often times when the plan can't catch up with the changes, so food is not wasted, not wasted.
Seeing that they all came together, Roland had to summon a dozen more balloons of water to come out and wash the dishes for them.
The well-fed players began to gather together and sing again.
Andonara and a few others sat under the tree not far away, looking at this group of 'happy' players, and always felt a sense of disobedience.
They feel that these people lack a sense of reality in life, they are too frivolous, they have the feeling of playing the world, and they don't care too much about anything.
This attitude makes them a little disliked, but somehow, in their hearts, they actually yearn for this kind of life.
Ashrothfin put the chopsticks back in his system backpack and continued, "It's true that the news has been blocked, but not much. After all, the kings are already seriously ill, and many people below will think that it is impossible to completely block the news. ”
"So what is the purpose of the eldest prince making a big fuss at the banquet? For the throne? Roland was a little puzzled: "Andonara doesn't have any influence in the royal family, and if he does this, it is estimated that it will only make people think that he is very tasteless, but it will make others think that he has no energy or something." If he competes for the throne, it will be a disadvantageous statement. ”
Ashrothfin glanced at Andonara in the distance, and explained, "But three of the people he feasted had a grudge against the queen. And those three people are now considered real power people, and he just wants to use this method to tell those three people that if they are interested in the queen, he is their alliance. As for the grudges that those three have against the queen, you can ask them later, and she should tell you. ”
"You even know that?"
Roland felt that he still underestimated these merchants, and their combat effectiveness may not be very strong, but this intelligence ability is really a bit outrageous.
"Don't sit on all 6 of them." Ashrothfen said with a smile, and then said: "Merchants, you have to get the information about the goods, and you have to get the information of the powerful, otherwise how can you call it professional." From the movements of the big people, accurately predicting the flow of future market materials is a small means that we must master. ”
"So......" Roland glanced at the carriage, "Your goods this time should be all standard equipment." ”
"Awesome. It seems that Roland, you are also qualified to be a businessman. The arms business is very profitable. Ashrothfen praised and said: "There are at least five princes who are capable of competing for the throne, including illegitimate children, and there are no less than thirty big nobles involved, counting the small and medium-sized nobles, and the power between them is about the same, and this turmoil in Hollevon may last for several years." ”
"And then there's a good chance for you merchants to get the millet from the fire."
Ash Rothfin shrugged proudly, he looked up at the sky, and said slowly: "In reality, I have failed to do business several times, although I have not lost all my family property, but my heart has been almost exhausted, originally I made a virtual cabin just for retirement, but I didn't expect that I could continue my ideals here." In this turmoil in Hollevin, we cornucopia guild have to get enough benefits and the right to speak. ”
Roland was silent for a while and asked, "You chose a prince to invest?" ”
"That's smart!" Ashrothfen clapped his palms in admiration: "Amazing, worthy of a man who can play the profession of a master." Are you interested in joining us, although Hollevin is only a small country, but if we win, you can also get a lot of benefits. ”
Roland looked at Ashrosfin's eyes quietly, and the man's expression was as domineering as ever.
He looked at the sand sculpture players who were singing loudly, and felt a little emotional.
No matter how sand sculptures or huskies the players are, they are essentially talents who have been systematically educated for at least ten years.
Many undergraduates and graduate students feel that they have studied for more than ten years and have not learned any skills, but that is what they compare, and they are originally people at the same level as themselves.
And there are always very few winners, so most people feel that they are ordinary.
But when such a group of seemingly ordinary people are put into this world where knowledge and culture are quite barren.
They're all top talent.
Although they all look very sand sculptures, in essence, they are just wearing a husky coat, and they are essentially vicious wolves.
After nearly a year of playing, players have become accustomed to the world and have almost explored it, and they are ready to open their fangs to the world while shedding their husky coats.
Roland was silent for a moment and said, "If you invest in one prince, then other guilds will definitely invest in other princes, right?" ”
"It should be, at least the Jialan Temple has its own goal. Now the guilds with a bit of intelligence smell are already acting quietly, and only the scattered players don't know what will happen. Ashrothfin stood up, looked into the distance and said, "A powerful player like you will definitely be the guest of all guilds, and besides us, others will definitely recruit you, but I think there should be no guild that is richer than ours, so we can give you a lot." ”
Roland's eyes moved with Ashrothfin, and after a while, he looked at Andonara on the side and said, "I'll forget it." ”
Ashrothfen also looked at Andonara, and then shook his head helplessly: "You love beauty more than the country." ”
Then Ashrosfin took a few steps forward and shouted, "Alright, you've eaten and drunk, it's time to go." ”
A group of players jumped up on the ground, immediately packed up their belongings, and led the wagon to the side of the road.
Ashrothfin also stood on the side of the road and shouted at Roland, "You are always welcome in the Cornucopia Guild, Uncle Roland. ”
He then smiled and waved at Roland and left with the caravan.
The wheels of the caravan's carriage made the sound of 'Luluru' and faded away.
Andonara walked over, hugged Roland's hand and asked, "You were all in a good mood before, why did you suddenly become a little stiff then?" ”
"They say the king is going to die." Roland carefully observed the change in Andonara's expression.
Andonara paused for a moment before she understood what Roland meant.
She was a little surprised, but there was no trace of sadness or sadness.
She was even a little entangled: "Well, why is he going to die so soon, so isn't my queen's identity almost gone?" ”
Roland asked casually, "Do you care much about the identity of the queen?" ”
"Of course." Andonara's face was pressed against Roland's arm, and she said as a matter of course: "I have the status of a queen, you will feel excited." Otherwise, what's the difference between me and an ordinary woman? ”
Well...... Roland was somewhat unable to comprehend Andonara's brain circuitry.
Then Andonara suddenly laughed charmingly, her eyes rolled, and she gently rubbed Roland's arm with the thick front armor: "While my status as queen has not expired, won't you come and try?" It's obviously very exciting to put a queen like this and that, otherwise after a while, I won't have the status of a queen, and the feeling of excitement will drop significantly! ”
Looking at Andonara's mature style, Roland's body suddenly gushed out with a rush of blood.
But in less than two seconds, he used his powerful mental power to lower this momentum: "I'll talk about this later." ”
Andonara smiled and gave him a white look, as if to say that he was sullen, obviously he was already tempted, and he was still holding back.
Roland coughed and diverted the topic: "Ashrothfin also told me just now that Bianca is the fief of the eldest prince, and he seems to have some ill intentions towards you. ”
"It's normal." Andonara said in surprise: "Not to mention the eldest prince, almost all the princes who know about it have privately invited me to their fiefdoms or manors as guests, and my words are quite explicit, I just don't bother to pay attention to them." ”
The royal family is in chaos.
Roland sighed, and then said: "Bianca is the fief of the eldest prince, and we originally planned to settle there, but now it seems that we can only bypass it from outside the city. ”
"Well, I think it's better to go around it, too." Andonara nodded: "Although the eldest prince is very weak, Vivien's strength is still more dangerous against a large number of elite soldiers. ”
Roland looked back in the direction the caravan had left, and could faintly see a slowly moving black dot in the distance.
He had a feeling that the game world had developed to the point where the war between players seemed to be about to break out on a large scale.
If it's people, it's the same for players.
But the player is immortal, and once the trouble starts, I don't know what kind of damage will be caused to the world.
