Chapter 58 - Impact and Reconstruction
When Lu Ming returned to the normal world from the Shadow World and returned to the Grand Duke's Mansion, he found that Grand Duke Elsa Aymanra had really been assassinated by his Akuton. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoAlthough she was saved by a passing woman, many nobles in the Grand Duke's Mansion are now suspicious.
This situation greatly hindered the reconstruction of the city of Anubai and the pacification of the people, and a culture of mutual distrust gradually began to spread among the nobles, and almost everyone feared that the people around them would be the next to be controlled.
And when Lu Ming found out that there was a nobleman who was the same as himself and was also a great magician, his nose was about to be crooked.
After pointing at that person and scolding him, Lu Ming asked You'er Sika to use magic to purify the entire Grand Duke's Mansion to prevent anyone from being controlled by the magic and evil magic of the Evil Spirit Church, and then Lu Ming used the magic of dissolving suggestion and hypnosis on everyone in the Grand Duke's Mansion, which made everyone feel relieved. Only the scolded Grand Mage blushed a little, because this magic was the simplest of the third-order magic......
When Lu Ming used magic on Akuton and released him from the control of the people of the Evil Spirit Church, he fell to the ground and began to cry.
Seeing this, a priest on the side stepped forward to comfort him and told him that there was nothing wrong with Elsa, and that she would get better as long as she recuperated for a while.
But even so, he was extremely afraid. If he had been controlled, if he had been a little more accurate or had not had that girl, Elsa would have died by now, and he would have lived in unimaginable grief......
Looking at Akuton, who was grieving because he was afraid of hurting his beloved wife, Lu Ming sighed slightly, and then turned around and left, walking towards the room that the nobles had arranged for Yu'er Sika and Chimera.
Here, Lu Ming changed out of the blood-stained clothes on his body and wiped his body with a basin of warm water. At the same time, he also told Yur Sika that he had not captured or killed Falsels.
Unlike Lu Ming's assumption, Yu'er Sika didn't get angry or anything, but like Chimera, he was wiping his body with a wet towel. Just when he was a little puzzled, he had impulsively gone to the banquet alone, preparing to fight with Falsel alone, what was wrong with Yuer Sika, he heard Yuer Sika say softly: "You are my husband, I believe you will protect my ......"
Hearing this, Lu Ming's heart warmed slightly, smiled and swapped her and Chimera into his arms, and said, "Of course, I will protect you." ”
But at this time, Winsland walked in, ignoring that Lu Ming was not wearing any clothes, and said very directly: "The two archdukes asked me to ask what you think of Lisa and Freddy's affairs." ”
Suddenly, the gentle smile on Lu Ming's face turned into a terrifying grin. He glanced at Winsland and said angrily, "As for the Grand Duke's first cut and then the prelude, I just want to say that when I return to Erepos, I will let the two of them see what hell is like!" ”
As soon as he heard this, Winsland ran away without hesitation, and told Lu Ming's work to the two grand dukes who made their own decisions and cut them first and then played them. As a result, the two archdukes were almost scared to death, so they asked Lisa and Freddy to intercede, only to be let go by Lu Ming.
-----------------------------------
Early the next morning, the speech to pacify the population began.
However, it was not Grand Duke Elsa who spoke, but Ankara, the daughter of her and Akuton.
This made many people feel a little strange, and they began to speculate wildly. After a while, rumors began to spread among the people that the Grand Duke had been killed in the previous rebellion.
But just as these rumors were spreading more and more outrageously among the people, Ankara informed the people of the real situation, saying that Grand Duke Elsa was only injured and needed to recuperate for a while, and soon the people would be able to hear her speak in person.
Although this is not as exciting as the more and more evil versions, it is at least the official answer, and the people believe it.
Of course, those who are stubborn and forcibly proclaim that Elsa is dead are naturally targeted by the nobles. Even if they just join in the fun, the nobles will make them pay for their words and deeds, especially when the hatred of this family, relatives and friends has nowhere to vent.
Regardless of whether the propagandists would be tied to the gallows by the nobles, the populace, mobilized by Ankara's speech, soon began to rebuild the city of Anubai and cremate and bury the corpses.
What the Grand Dukes were worried about before still happened. Some of the newly recruited soldiers, because they liked the people's things, threatened the people with force. As a result, he happened to be seen by a passing nobleman, but he was reprimanded by the nobleman, and he had to apologize to the people and return the things to the robbed.
And when the soldier was unwilling and was about to teach those people a lesson at night, another soldier told him that those things in the mansions of the family faction who participated in the rebellion and the family members were almost dead could be taken at will, and no nobles would come to take care of it at all, but at this time they would play prestige and bully the people, causing the reconstruction progress to slow down, and it was very likely that they would be hung on the gallows, which would outweigh the losses.
In this way, these greedy soldiers suddenly came to their senses, and while thanking the soldiers for reminding them, they stretched out their evil claws to the mansions of those who participated in the rebellion. But they didn't know that all this was designed by the nobles.
When they have almost taken their things and the reconstruction of Anubhai City is almost complete, they will not obediently hand over the things and send them to the nobles' mansions, just waiting to be taught by the nobles to be human! At that time, they will know how stupid their greed is.
The rebellion of the family faction can be said to have an unusually large impact on Anubhai City, because of the large number of nobles killed in battle, the Amp official had to let some small group of family magicians who chose the side of the Grand Duke and did things for the Grand Duke wholeheartedly replaced those nobles whose entire family was dead and became the new nobles in Anubhai City.
However, this is not a good thing for the magicians of these families. Magicians need a long period of dedication to study before they can progress, but the heavy work of the nobles will make their time less and less, which can be said to be a stumbling block that can be said to hold them back.
But the order given to them by Miss Ankara is to replace those nobles whose entire family has died, and must be a magician within the family.
It's embarrassing.
On the one hand, the status of nobility allows the family to obtain more resources and allows the mirror to train more magicians, while on the other hand, the status of nobility also represents responsibility. Being a nobleman in the city where the Grand Duke is located is no more free than a nobleman who has his own territory. The heavy and round-the-clock work will cause the magician to regress a lot, and he will have to ask more people in the family to help him with the work.
It can be said that the status of nobility is a double-edged sword with both advantages and disadvantages for the magician family, which can make the family quickly revive, or it can also make the family quickly lose the name of the magician family. What the outcome will be can only be seen by what these families will do.
In addition to these magician families who defected to Archduke Elsa, the nobles who died in place of the whole family, there were also people from other noble families or relatives of those who died. Some of these people are well-educated children of nobles, while others are like out-and-out nouveau riche, and many nobles are ashamed to associate with them.
In the end, many nobles had to speak out against these nouveau riche, so that they could restrain their greedy and stupid faces, so as not to make the nobles of Erepos and Tartarus laugh.
However, even so, these nouveau riche still went their own way, scolding anyone when they saw that they were unhappy, and snatching anything they wanted, so that the acting chief public security kara and the advisor Count Peter had to execute several nouveau riche nobles before these people knew what a companion was like a tiger. In any case, the Grand Duke is the lord of the principality, and if he wants their little life, it is just a sentence. Anyone can be executed by the Grand Duke, except for talents who are useful and cannot be lacking in the principality!
This situation made many nobles envious of Lu Ming and Winsland, who were able to talk and laugh with the Grand Duke, and even threaten the Grand Duke. Looking at the situation of other people, and then looking at their own grand dukes who kill people at every turn, the new nobles couldn't help but sigh. Keep the depression and complaints in your heart, and concentrate on your work to serve the Grand Duke.
Of course, even if they want to be people like Lu Ming or Winsland and Lothric, they have to weigh their own efforts, after all, people's abilities are not a joke. If someone has the same ability as Lu Ming and others, they will naturally be able to become such a nobleman who is relied on and valued by the Grand Duke.
It's a pity that almost none of these new nobles have such abilities.
As for why it is almost, this is a nobleman who has taken refuge on the side of the Grand Duke, and one can be regarded as half Winsland.
She is the eldest lady of Amp's wizard family, the Elni family, Vera Ernny.
Although she is nowhere near as capable as Winsland, she is also capable of advising the Grand Duke and the Acting Grand Duke.
-----------------------------------
On the fourth day after the speech, many houses that had been crushed by the heavy snow had been rebuilt, allowing people to live in their homes again.
Walking on the street, Lu Ming and Winsland walked towards the Warcraft cultivation base outside the city, although the reconstruction of Anubhai City had nothing to do with the two of them, but it was always happy to see this originally prosperous city once again regain its previous prosperity.
"I heard you're going back to Erebos in a few days?" After walking through the commercial area and the civilian areas that were relatively clean compared to other principalities, Winsland suddenly asked Lu Ming.
"yes. Now the school is about to start its winter vacation, and the Chinese New Year is approaching. I also want to go home and spend time with my family. After all, there are too many accidents when doing things outside. While handing over his coat of arms to the soldiers guarding the city gate, Lu Ming smiled.
"Accidents? Hehe, that's what I said. He smiled helplessly, and then Winsland and Lu Ming, who had taken back the coat of arms, came to the Warcraft cultivation base outside the city.
Here, they meet the acting public security officer Carla Moy, who is inspecting a large-jawed ant that has just hatched for two days, and her advisor, Vera Ernnie, who is accompanying her.
"It's Earl Meer and Viscount Lu, are you also here to check on the situation of these magical beasts?" Seeing Lu Ming and Winsland coming over, Vera Ernny, who had accompanied Ankara, spoke. At the same time, she also looked at the two of them with a distress look.
"yes, let's take a look at these kids." Seeing this, Lu Ming couldn't help but smile and took off several electric insects from her body, put them on the fruit tree on the side, pointed to the two dumb fire camels not far away and said, "By the way, Viscount Erni, you go and help record the situation of those two stupid fire camels, is it okay?" ”
Hearing this, Vera brushed as if relieved, ran to the two stupid camels, and pretended to make a record for the stupid camels.
Glancing at Vera from a distance, Ankara glanced at the electric bug lying obediently on her shoulder, and didn't understand why she was afraid of these cute little guys. However, she didn't care about this, she was just puzzled for a while, and then turned to chat with Lu Ming and Winsland.
"Because Sun Rock and Natural Bird used their telekinesis to help the people build houses, many people in Amp no longer paid much attention to the cultivation of demonic beasts as before. Now they will all come over on their own, see these children, and bring back some of the magical beasts they have found to the cultivation base. Pointing to a big-jawed ant in the distance, talking to the keeper, preparing to give the big-jawed ant he caught to the civilians in the breeding base, Ankara smiled and said, "If this continues, Amp's demonic beasts will soon be able to catch up with the pace of Erepos and Tartarus!" ”
"It's a good thing to do, but don't forget the importance of the bounty, Grand Duke." Out of kindness, Lu Ming kindly reminded.
Hearing Lu Ming's reminder, the Acting Grand Duke of Ankara couldn't help laughing and said, "What Viscount Lu Ming said is the same as Viscount Erni!" ”
"It's good for people to donate monsters for free, but if you forget that you should give something in return, over time, it will become a forced responsibility, and the people will become disappointed in the lord." At this time, Count Winsland also spoke.
"I see, please rest assured. My mother and I won't become the tyrannical dukes in the story! Ankara smiled sweetly and said to Lu Ming and Winsland.
As soon as the words fell, a burst of intense light erupted from Vera Ernny's side, and to everyone's shock, a kind of stupid fire camel evolved into a taller and more spiritual fire-breathing camel.
Looking at the fire-breathing camels that had turned fiery red, with three blue rings on each side of their bodies, and humps on their backs that had changed from one to two, and looked like craters, a glow called ambition shimmered in the eyes of the acting Grand Duke of Ankara. She could already see the future prosperity of the duchy when she inherited it from her mother.
And the fire-breathing camel that allowed her to see these was rewarded by Ankara to the lucky enough to meet Viscount Vera Ernnie, who had just walked over. (To be continued.) )
