Chapter 222: Intrigue is everywhere
There is a good saying, if a powerful person pretends to cheat, then it is called cheating, and if a person without strength pretends to cheat, that is pure stupidity.
Leo is so arrogant, the undead below are naturally eager to chop him up and throw him into the meat grinder as a raw material to create hatred, but this guy has three epic powerhouses around him to protect, and the others are in the air, and the tens of thousands of undead who can't fly can only stare below.
The two bone dragons caused quite a shock, and both the commander of the army of the dead and Prince Galen of the Araso coalition had already determined that the person who came was Leo when they saw the bone dragon.
Needless to say, the undead side naturally reported the news to Yaquith and the Dark Priest, who had fled back to the Dark City, and the source of the Alasso coalition was Stormwind.
Perhaps the higher-ups of the Stormwind Kingdom felt that this news was very secretive, because Pasonia reported it directly to the highest level of the kingdom, and it was impossible for non-members of the core of the kingdom to know about it. However, there is no impermeable wall in the world, and the secret known by the second person is no longer a secret, and the news still flows into the hands of Prince Galen of the Kingdom of Alaso through some channels.
As a prince who aspires to restore the former glory of the kingdom of Aratho, Galen became extremely interested in Leo after learning the news, and after learning about Leo's relationship with the kingdom of Stormwind, the prince of Araso was greatly excited.
If we can win over this warlock named Leo and let him serve the kingdom of Alatho, the revival of the kingdom is just around the corner.
But to dig into the corners of the Stormwind Kingdom, this is not something that can be achieved by thinking about it, he must find an entry point. And Leo has a big conflict with the nobles of the Stormwind Kingdom because of the overthrow of Count Greg, this is his chance for Galen, and it is also the opportunity for the Kingdom of Araso.
Galen was 100% sure that the Stormwind Kingdom would make him unhappy with the fact that Leo was alone against the army of the undead in Deadwood Village. However, Galen knew that he might not be able to recruit Leo just by doing so, and he felt that the fire was not burning strong enough, so the prince of Araso decided to add two more bundles of wood to make the fire really burn.
The relationship between the Kingdom of Araso and the Kingdom of Stormwind is like the connection between various noble families, and it cannot be described by words such as intertwined and intricate.
Don't look at the kingdom of Arathor is down now, but there are many nobles in the kingdom of Stormwind who are very happy to serve Prince Galen, after all, the kingdom of Arathso has too much influence in human history, and it is the first kingdom established by mankind. What the nobles are talking about, what they are talking about is the heritage, and what they are talking about is the accumulation. This is even more common after the disappearance of Varian, the former king of the Stormwind Kingdom, and a small child sitting on the king's throne.
Can a child serve the public? Obviously not. It is easier to convince a group of nobles to be happy with a child than to let the sun come out in the west.
The people below have not yet returned to their hearts, and they are generally skeptical and watching their own performance, and Xiao Andu has to make compromises many times. Even if Anduin Jr. has the full support of the Grand Duke of Boval by his side, it is useless, it is not so simple for a kingdom to keep running, and the real power of the kingdom is really in the hands of the nobility, and the power in the hands of the nobility overshadows the royal power of Anduin Jr.
Anduin Jr.'s plan was to maintain the stability of the kingdom first, and then reclaim power after he was officially crowned as an adult. There was nothing wrong with this, but he wronged Leo as soon as he made such a compromise.
Is Leo someone who can stand being wronged? He is a time-traveler, not a native of this world who has been brainwashed by the idea of kingship. What words like heroic sacrifice for the sake of His Majesty the King can make many people in this world be willing to be wronged regardless of personal gains and losses, but they cannot have half an impact on Leo.
So, as things went on, Leo jumped ship.
"Your Royal Highness, that person is Leo. It seems that the rumors are correct, and he is really not an obedient guy. Beside Galen, a paladin with a sledgehammer wrapped in a layer of golden holy light looked at Leo who looked arrogant in the air and spoke.
Galen looked at Leo with burning eyes, his face full of confidence.
"It's all right, Oslet, as long as he can help restore my kingdom of Alatho."
Leo, Leo, after confirming that you can create a mechanical golem with epic combat power, it took me a lot of effort to get a fool like Stormwind to continue to deal with you. I didn't expect such a stupid person to work hard enough to send you to do this kind of almost mortal task. It's a pity that they are not the core layer of the Storm Kingdom, but they don't know how valuable you are.
Galen was a little proud, if the king of the Stormwind Kingdom was not a child, the nobles of this kingdom did not respect this child king very much, how could he influence the core and high-level of this kingdom, so that the Stormwind Kingdom could delay and delay making a decision on how to treat Leo.
It's really time, and it's fate! Heaven has destined the kingdom of Arathor to be restored in the hands of my Galen, and you, Leo, are the opportunity for the kingdom's revival.
Poor Leo, he didn't know that the funny big guy he wanted to meet for a while was the culprit who made him hasten his break with Stormwind. If it weren't for Prince Galen's covert actions, the military would not have given the ridiculous task of letting Leo support the Valley of Refuge with 500 men.
When dealing with the aristocracy, you really have to be prepared to be cheated at any time, because they have been exposed to politics since childhood, and they will make intrigue everywhere.
Of course, intrigue and intrigue will not work at all in the face of absolute strength.
Compared to the army of the undead underground, the bone dragon has absolute strength.
Huge in size and with epic combat power, the speed at which the bone dragon kills undead soldiers after landing is quite amazing, and the number of undead soldiers killed in each attack is in double digits. Before the strong of the army of the dead arrived, they had already cleared a path to the Valley of Refuge for the five hundred dragon blood guards.
Seeing that the road ahead was cleared, Wei Li hurriedly rushed forward with the dragon blood guards, don't look at the bone dragon making fun now, once the strong man in the undead army arrives, the battle will become very difficult to fight, if you don't take advantage of this time to rush over, there will be no such a good opportunity in the future.
The bone dragon opened the way ahead, and Viri followed closely with five hundred dragon blood guards, and before the strong of the undead army arrived, they had already joined the allied forces of Arathso led by Prince Galen, and the two teams quickly retreated into the Valley of Refuge.
"Thun, just let them in?" Beside the commander of the army of the dead, a knight on a skeletal horse looked at the two armies retreating into the Valley of Refuge and asked questions. Isn't this knight Simon who was defeated by Leo in Deadwood Village? Thun is the name of the undead commander.
"Let them have fun for a while, and when the target arrives, it's not too late to kill them. These humans really thought that we would not be able to break through their improvised defensive line, and if it weren't for the Queen's orders, I would have led someone to kill them all. ”
Thun's reaction to his army being slain by a human army of five hundred was the exact opposite of his previous frustration. What he said was even more shocking, it turned out that the army of the undead under his command was not unable to break through the Valley of Refuge, but had other plans.
"Well, you're the commander, it's your business what to do."
When Thun mentioned the word Queen, Simon's expression changed slightly, but the others didn't notice it.
"It's time for the long-inherited Lothar family to come to an end, Her Majesty doesn't want to see the birth of a legendary human powerhouse, especially since this human is still a paladin." Thun said with a gloomy laugh, "Come on, little girl, I can't wait." ”
The little girl of the Lothar family, and the paladin, who is not Scarlett? It seems that the undead of the Undercity are also calculating something.
The undead are calculating Scarlett, what is the female paladin who has received the secret method of the legendary powerhouse inheritance?
"That paladin of the kingdom of Araso has really decided?"
In Stormwind, in Countess Presto's mansion, the black-haired and dark-eyed Countess is asking someone standing in front of her.
The faces of the people who were questioned were full of flattering smiles, and the flattering psychological quality of that face was really unbearable. But the Countess of Presto was conspicuously not included in these people, and she did exactly one word about it - she turned a blind eye.
"Yes, several ** divisions of the Magicians Guild have been invited, and it is estimated that the establishment of the teleportation circle will be in the next few days."
"Good." A shallow smile appeared on the countess's face, "As a member of the Lothar family, she is naturally responsible for the trouble of the Araso Kingdom. As an ally of Arathso, we should be considerate of her and try to make it as convenient as possible. ”
"Ms. Presto, that's what you said. If it weren't for the Banshees of the Undercity who magically sealed off the space in the Valley of Refuge and couldn't teleport on a large scale, we in the Kingdom of Stormwind would definitely have sent an army to the Valley of Refuge to help the allies of the Kingdom of Aratho. ”
The countess did not answer the man's words, but changed her words to something else.
"How's that Warlock named Leo? I've heard that the army gave him a strange order, it can't be your people. ”
Speaking of Leo, the flattery on this person's face immediately turned into indignation, and he only heard him say: "Leo, this kid relies on the fact that he is a member of MI7 and has Pasonia to support him, and he actually ignores the appointment of the kingdom, and he is so undisciplined that he privately runs to the Valley of Refuge with his personal guards, which is really lawless. If such a person does not punish the king severely, how can the discipline be maintained? I have long said that such a commoner should not have been knighted at all. ”
"I see, I know, I will explain this to His Majesty. It seems that MI7 is suspected of shielding Leo, and their report to His Majesty the King actually said that Leo went to the Valley of Refuge because someone ordered him to do so. Deceive His Majesty, this matter must be investigated carefully, Lord Earl, you must be careful, and they will not find any false evidence. ”
Countess Presto said it lightly, and the count next to her listened to it with a heartfelt understanding, and there was a tacit feeling between the two counts of the Storm Kingdom, a woman and a man, and a strong sense of conspiracy was mixed in.
"What Ms. Presto is saying is that now that His Majesty is so young that some people think that the king is too young to be bullied, and that he can shield his subordinates from trampling on the laws of the kingdom, it is really hateful. It is necessary for us, the faithful ministers, to purge the kingdom of such a cancer. ”
The countess smiled lightly, and a sense of pride that no one could perceive flashed across her face.
My dear brother, my methods are a hundred times better than you, who can only rely on brute force. This so-called Storm Kingdom, the most powerful kingdom of the human race, is not easily played by me between applause, you see, it won't be long before this kingdom will be turned upside down by me. Of course, before I can do that, I'll have to get rid of some of the little ones that get in the way.
Aiwell? Pasonia? Ridiculous MI7, a bunch of humble human epics. As long as Bolvar doesn't make a move, who in Stormwind can stop me?
