Chapter 103 - Prelude
After a day's rest in Agamemnon, Lu Ming and Raman Lath returned to Odysseus. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Honey, I'm back." When he got home, Lu Ming immediately hugged Lily and Sham.
"Welcome back, dear." Seeing that he was back, Lily, Sham and the others hugged Lu Ming at once, so that Raman Lassi, who had been following Lu Ming, also hugged him.
After saying a few words slightly, he said hello to everyone again, and then Lu Ming sat in the study, and together with Raman Lasi, he talked about some things he encountered in Yalu. Of course, there are dangerous things, so naturally they don't talk about it.
After chatting about the afternoon, Jack and the others left the study with the others, leaving Lu Ming and Sham alone for a while.
At this time, Lu Ming also said some things that were not good to say in front of the children and friends. For example, Raman Rath's disobedient and Tourres's alternate self-denial, the copy of the [National Library], and the matter of Falsels.
"Didn't you listen to us?" After listening to Lu Ming's narration and Raman Lass's own account, Sham glanced at Raman Rath a little helplessly, and sighed a little helplessly. However, fortunately, the Empress did not directly execute Ramanlath, which had no bad impact on Odysseus's future plans.
However, when the two Lily and Sham heard Lu Ming slaying the dragon twice, they couldn't help but shoot their eyes at Lu Ming.
In Pulu, a warrior who is promoted to the sixth rank not only requires the warrior's own efforts and talents, but also uses the blood of the dragon to strengthen his own physical strength, so that he can withstand the use of the maximum power of Gang Qi, and will not be crushed by his own Gang Qi!
However, dragon blood is not something to be used casually, and if you don't have enough rank, or if you don't have the right mind, you will resonate with dragon blood and become a half-human, half-dragon monster like Evennes or Falsels.
Feeling the hot gaze of his wives, Lu Ming was taken aback, and then took out a few small glass bottles containing dragon blood from his mobile phone, and said at the same time: "This is the blood of the White Dragon Hiss, and it is some of the blood of the Hiss that I collected after defeating the White Dragon Hiss." But first, I don't know if the ancient dragon we are talking about is the same thing as the dragon that Mira Kaisa is talking about, so I don't know if this thing will have a ...... for your future promotion."
Without waiting for Lu Ming to finish speaking, Ulcika took a bottle of Hiss's blood from Sham's hand, opened the stopper and smelled it, and then drank it with a grunt!
Seeing this scene, Lu Ming and the others were immediately shocked, and hurriedly ran over to grab her, and began to check if she had any adverse reactions. It turned out that she didn't have any adverse reactions, and even the scales didn't grow, but a few dragon scales on the back of her neck fell off, turning into smooth white skin.
This made Lu Ming and the others a little unexpected.
But no matter what Yuersicka said, Lu Ming wouldn't allow her to do this nonsense again!
"Don't worry, I'm fine. You guys are making too much of a fuss! Yursika, who was hugged by Lu Ming and asked Sham and the others to check their bodies, looked at Lu Ming and they looked nervous, and couldn't help laughing, and said.
"You're still laughing! Did you know that we were scared to death by you! Seeing that Ursika was fine, Lu Ming couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but Ursika's look of incomprehension of the nervousness of himself and the others made him feel very unhappy, so he smacked Ursica's head hard with his forehead, making her scream in pain!
"It hurts!! Head! Head! Head ......"
Seeing Yuersika struggling in Lu Ming's arms, Sham and the others sighed helplessly, and then Chimera stretched out her hand and rubbed the place where Yursika was beaten.
However, Lu Ming also took the opportunity to lick Chimera's fingers, making her face turn red all of a sudden.
Seeing this, Sham couldn't help but say a few words in Lu Ming's ear, which made Lu Ming laugh, hugged Yursika and took the others with him, went back to his room, and went to turn over the clouds and rain......
-----------------------------------
After a lot of nonsense, it didn't stop until late in the evening.
Coming out of the room, Lu Ming came to the dining room, and sat down in his seat surrounded by his wives to the left and right, ready to eat dinner.
But at this time, an uninvited guest came to Lu Ming's mansion.
"I'm sorry to bother you at this time, but it's better for you to know about it!" As soon as he saw Lu Ming, the uninvited guest spoke.
As soon as he heard this, Lu Ming knew that something was wrong, and hurriedly said, "Say it!" Something is wrong! β
"Back to Lord Viscount, according to reliable information, we have discovered that Alpha's invasion will be a month earlier!"
Hearing this, Lu Ming couldn't help frowning and said, "How can I say that we only have about two months left now?" β
"Yes, Lord Viscount!"
Frowning, Lu Ming pondered the countermeasures, and his fingers involuntarily tapped lightly on the tabletop.
Each time, it made the uninvited guest's heart beat violently.
After a long time, Lu Ming opened his mouth and asked the man, "Tartarus should have already begun to deploy defenses...... Has the establishment of Diocalion been completed? β
"Lord Viscount, whether or not the establishment of Diocalion has been completed is not something that I, a small herald, can know. However, judging from the conscription in various places, it should not have been made up yet. β
"Okay, I got it. Stand down! He looked at the uninvited guest without a trace, and then Lu Ming let the man retreat.
After the man was sent away by the servant, Lu Ming couldn't help but sneer and said, "Aifa Empire, heh!" β
Sham didn't know why Lu Ming was laughing, but they knew that he had a plan in his heart for a long time, and it was a plan that had been prepared a year ago.
"Sham, let's go to Hector in a few days! Both Muka and the children said that the elders were going to do something, and I was afraid that they would do something. I don't know why, Lu Ming suddenly said to Sham.
Sham looked at Lu Ming, unable to figure out why Lu Ming made this proposal, but in the next second, he saw an invisible gesture from Raman Lace and Lily, and immediately knew that this was a cover-up, so he nodded and said, "Okay!" I haven't been back for a long time. β
Sham is a member of the Hatu family, and Hector is the territory of the Hatu family, so this time he can be said to be going back to his mother's house. It's just that it's not just her husband Lu Ming who will go back with her, but also the people of Ursika, and only two Lily will stay behind to take care of the children and manage the entire territory.
Of course, it is impossible for them to go to Hector for many days this time, and it will only take half a month at most, after all, there are still a lot of things in the territory waiting for Lu Ming and Sham to deal with!
Two days later, in a mansion next to the Lord's Mansion in the city of Astyanax in Hector, the elders of the House of Hatu were planning a coup d'Γ©tat.
Now the nobles of Erepos have almost already known that the invasion of the Alpha Empire will be a month in advance, and they are basically preparing for this matter, so at this time, it will not take many nobles to have the time and energy to manage this small coup d'Γ©tat!
The alliance between Hector and Odysseus allowed Hector to develop so quickly that even the city of Astyanax, which was nothing more than a small city, had become one of the leading large cities in Erepos.
Such rapid development naturally caused a fault line in the management and split into two factions. On one side of it is the young faction led by the lord of Mka, who advocate faster and better development, so that Hector can become rich and become a veritable Erepos third, rather than a broken territory with no name and nothing.
On the other hand, there are the elders of the Hatu family and a group of old nobles who can't keep up with the overall development of Eresopus. They can't keep up with the pace of development, and when others are developing at full strength, they always want to consolidate the power in their hands, and even want to snatch power from other nobles and make those people their puppets!
Among them, the elders of the Hatu family did how to do it.
Due to his young age, although he is the lord of Hector, many decisions need to be made by the family. This gave the clan elders a chance, and that was to override the power of Mukka.
By constantly rejecting Mka's own proposals and decisions, they let most of the nobles know that Hector was really in charge, and that they had gained far more power than Mka as a lord.
In this way, the result is that sometimes, even if their deliberative decisions are rejected by Mka, they will be carried out!
But gradually, things changed. There are two things that are not going according to their wishes, but are developing in the direction they least want to see.
One is that Muka is engaged to the Sweikes family, and the other is that Muka has privately signed a contract with Odysseus' team of workers to destroy and rebuild the civilian area of Astyanax.
Because these two things are involved in diplomacy, they have no way to force Mka to break the contract. Because to do so, Hector and the Hatu family would be in a very dangerous situation. So they didn't have much to do but be silent.
However, because of their silence, some nobles mistakenly thought that Muka had regained some power, and they fell to Mka's side. This was the last thing the elders could tolerate, so they decided to assassinate Muka and take back control of the Hector Territory.
Like most noble families, the Hatu family also has many branches, but now this branch as a viscount lord is weak. Give the branch a chance to get their hands on the territory, so that their ambitions become bigger and bigger!
Sitting inside the mansion, the clan elders were discussing everything that needed to be prepared for the coup.
"Tomorrow this stinky boy is going to inspect the training of the army in the territory, I think we can intercept him halfway, and then put the charge on the head of the army commander, and then kill him as quickly as possible, so that this matter is over!"
"It's a good idea, even if Sham and Muxiu want to investigate afterwards, we can use this to prevaricate!"
"But what about Kurakdes Lu? Lu Ming, that guy is not easy to deal with! He dared to do it against the Grand Duke at the beginning! β
"Kurakdes, it's indeed a trouble, not to mention that his own strength is not bad, plus if something happens to him, it will provoke Mao Luming, the radical wolf...... We're really helpless against him right now. β
"Not necessarily!"
"Oh? Doudes, do you have any opinions? β
"I think we can send someone to assassinate the mother of this stinky boy Muka, and after she sees the assassin and is frightened, she pretends to be a failed assassin and retreats. In this way, Muka will have to send Kurakdes to protect his mother, and we will have a chance to assassinate Mka without provoking Kurakdes and Lu Ming! β
Hearing this, except for a few people, basically everyone of the clan elders agreed with Dudes's statement and was ready to start doing so.
And the few clan elders who disagreed, watched silently as they were preparing for the assassination there, hoping that things would succeed, and that they and the others were just thinking too much.
Under the intense planning, Dudes's humble idea was quickly refined, and every step was redesigned.
Moreover, this assassin was also selected by them from a large number of dead soldiers cultivated by the family, and was ready to carry out a fake assassination operation!
But at this time, those clan elders who felt that this plan was not very reliable suddenly had a hunch that this operation was likely to fail!
Although it was just a premonition for no reason, they were just very uneasy, and they couldn't think of anything that could go wrong......
-----------------------------------
As the clan elders were ready to take action, Muka was in the office with Kurakdes, discussing with several young nobles how to take power back from the clan elders and the old nobles who could not keep up with the overall pace of development of Errepos.
"It's time for us to get rid of these guys! Ladies and gentlemen, tomorrow we are going to take back the power that belongs to us from those guys, so no matter what step you take, you can't make a mistake! Got it!? β
"Yes, Lord Viscount!"
"Good!" Hearing the young nobles' answers, Muka smiled and nodded, and then said, "Start your action early tomorrow morning, and you must prepare what you need as soon as possible!" β
"Rest assured, we've got something ready. Whether it's a flintlock pistol, a (hunter's) sword, and a variety of alchemical potions, they are all ready. Even the magic mask that we know is enough to hide what we know to be! β
Hearing this, Muka said again: "Our Mirakaisa Kingdom is about to be invaded by the Alpha Empire, but these old guys have no intention of preparing for this, and they want us to give up resistance and drag the entire Erepos back!" We have to use our actions to tell them that we will not be in the same league as them, that we are nobles of Erebos and Miracaisa, and that we will never give the future to the Alpha Empire because of a little petty profit! β
"Yes, we are the nobles of Erepos and Mirakesa, and we will never hand over the future of our territory to the Alpha Empire!"
Yes, while the clan elders were preparing for a coup d'Γ©tat, Muka and others were also preparing to overthrow their suppression.
No one wants to be limited by someone else, so both of them are ready to kill each other...... (To be continued.) )
